Are you sure that it is a Princess Ship?? I'm seeing a dark bow, and I don't know a Princess Ship with a dark bow (or is it just because the sunset?)

Ah, ok, now I see the reason for the dark bow,
nice "fake", and now I see that it is a Princess Ship.

But she would look good with a dark bow!!

Well it appears to be OCEANA at Barcelona. However you ask "Who is this" therefore should we be looking for a person rather than an inanimate object?

Judging by the white funnel it cant be the Oceana... Thus its a Princess ship.

Apologies Phil.. can I say 'She'?

[or he or it..] Yes, it's Oceana approaching Barcelona just after 7am. Here she is just past the tanker, and once berthed:-

Just a quick glance makes her look QM2'ish until you notice the tanker. Ben the boat is is many of my photos, but I can't read the name; it sat there all the time.

Yes, I think they are the port shuttle buses getting ready though, rather than tour buses.
