Its a Cloudy Afternoon - Gotheborg Anchored at Singapore Harbour Front
The 3 months awaited Gotheborg since the first time news was released in Singapore is now a reality ! Gotheborg arrived on 30Th December 2006 and now anchored behind the Great Vivo City of Singapore ! Had an opportunity to go aboard today and a few snaps about that venture !
It was cloudy today and so you find Gotheborg agog under great and popular clouds that is what Singapore makes uniquely Singapore !
A few fascinating facts about this Swedish Vessel-
Total Length about 60 Meters
Height about 47 meters - To guess the height of the ship, the Bridges across Singapore Expressways allow about 4.5 meters height traffic vehicles - Can you guess then height ? Its about 10 times that !
Other Guess to understand the height- Republic Plaza is just about 5 times the ship's height !
A few snaps here you find of this marvellous vessel of the millennium invigorating East India man and East India Company - Colonial Era and Sailors Saga !
Its expected to leave Singapore shores to 'Shennai' ( Wonder whats that ? Its Chennai in India !)
around 10th of January 2007 ! So the vessel's next anchoring is in India and the Madras City is preparing for its arrival with Swedish Trade and Cultural programs !
If we are able to catch it there we will put some more snaps of it on Marina Chennai !
View And Enjoy
Beautiful Singapore Team
