Also, as you may or may not have noticed, Kships now has a new, lighter look. Unlike the old look, this one should also work fine on mobile devices (and if it doesn't, please tell me. I don't have mobile interweb device or a tablet computer so I never actually view this place with anything else than a traditional tabletop or a laptop).

The Color Magic is, of course, the largest ferry in the world. For some additional details about her (as well as further images), see this older entry. The photographs below show the Color Magic arriving in Kiel from Oslo in the morning of 3 June 2011, photographed from the deck of the MSC Poesia. Click on the images to see them in larger size.
Zoom out and take a photo from a higher angle and even a giant like the Color Magic can appear small. |
Turning in the Kiel Fjord in order to reverse into the quay. In the background the left is the (then-)DFDS LISCO ferry Kaunas. |
