Built 2003, shot in November ten years later. Ancona port. Officially the end of the trip. At the time i’m writing the ship is heading to Komodo island (sic!).
Santorini harbour, beginning of November 2013. Really similar in my fantasy to Love Boat’s Pacific Princess. The vessel features in David Foster Wallace’s essay “A supposedly fun thing I’ll never do again”, being rechristened as ‘Nadir’.
Crossing out of Samos-Karlovasi port. Vessel built in 1974. Shot from epic, almost twin vessel, Mytilene. If not ‘european’, ‘express’ is nowadays somewhat optimistic. October 2013.
