Ships Ahoy!! The BIG mothers are in.

Postby Tas Bus Nut » Fri Feb 17, 2012 8:51 pm

On occassions, we DO have TWO cruise ships in Hobart at the same. Rarely though, are they two BIG mothers. TODAY was one of those days:
Regent Seven Seas Voyager & Royal Caribbean Radiance of the Seas
This selection of photos, shows a SMALL selection of the "tour" coaches that were operating from the ships.

The Jacks Mercedes was the one that was used to transport guests from Launceston to Quamby Estate and return for my daughter's wedding.

Someone told me she's just about retired from these duties as it's getting a bit old. Yet to confirm. HAS been in the body shop getting some work done on it in recent months :?:
