Simplon postcards has a photo of two RCCL vessels in St. Marteen and one with two RCCL & two NCL sisters in Miami (a tandem - tandem card

). I also have pictures (in books - so I can not post) of two Royal Viking vessels in Oslo.

Two sisters in one place are simple but has ANOYONE TRIPLET PICTURES?

Sadly I can not post the three early RCCL ships (in St. Thomas?).

In Alaska it seems to be the practice that each line always has several vessels - often sisters - in port. Has anoyone some pictures? - Maybe some triplets?

Thanks Pam for these photos. I have always wanted to see an ex-Festival ship next to a newer generation MSC version.

I know that a few days ago, the NORWEGIAN CROWN, NORWEGIAN DAWN, and NORWEGIAN JEWEL had a photoshoot as they sailed out of NYC.

Does anyone have pictures of that?

Hi All,
I was on the Voyager of the Seas on the 18th and we fell in behind the three NCL ships and there was a Carnival ship behind us. It was a great day for ship watching along the river in NY.
