Viking Octantis is seen departing from Duluth Minnesota just as a thick layer of fog rolls in off of Lake Superior. The Viking Octantis was here in Duluth for what is known as a turn around day which is where passengers leave the ship and the next batch of passengers arrive, clear customs and security before starting their cruise later that evening. These Cruise Ships are a fairly new thing in Duluth since it has only been a couple of years since the completion of the cruise ship dock at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC). The next stop on this particular cruise is Thunder Bay Ontario.
The Viking Octantis is 665ft long with a beam of 77ft. Built in 2022 and has the capacity for 378 passengers and 256 crew members.

Hymek D7018 near Laverton on the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway on Monday 27-7-26.
This was the first stop on the Jack Boskett photo charter. As you can see full of cloud but occasionally the sun broke through. Not every location was in sun but certainly much better than I had expected.
