This is closing day for the 2010 cruise ship season -- and -- the season is ending on a high note.
The luxury liner "Queen Mary 2" is in port with her 25-hundred passengers until five this afternoon. The ship is equal to the height of a 23 storey building with 2 thousand washrooms, 120 thousand square metres of fitted carpets, 3 thousand telephones and is 147 feet longer than the height of Eiffel Tower.
The visit wraps up what port officials are terming a record breaking season with over 200-thousand cruise passengers visiting our city.
