Voted 10/10 | Looks like some whaling vessels.
What's that going off in the
background, a volcano???
It reminds me when our ship sailed
the Mediterrainean, and we went into
port off the coast of Sicily. In
the distance, Mount Etna was erupting.
Great descriptive picture!!! Thanks! | | Posted Dec 17, 2007 9:12 pm |

All the best
