NRP Corte Real - Arrival
2008.05.18
At the end of the afternoon, there it was the most recent of the Portuguese Navy Frigates: NRP Corte Real, a 'Vasco da Gama' class frigate that was received at the end 1991 and arrived at Portugal in 1992-
|
Fisherman (and woman) weren't that interested in the ship...
|
Waiting for the frigate, a couple of tugs.
|
Entering Funchal bay.
|
On the rear some sailors (men and women) enjoying the sights. On background you can still notice 'ilhéu chão', one of the Desert Islands.
|
Where's Wally? Or in this case, where's the marine? It shouldn't be hard with all those 'neoblanc' white sailors around... :))
|
|
Entrering Funchal with tipical Madeira background: the houses built up the mountain.
|
Hotel Porto Santa Maria in background.
|
Like the 'big' fishers, small fishers also seemed a lot more interested in whatever they've caught... (maybe some old boot....) :)
|
Preparing the docking....
|
...with lots of officers giving orders...
|
The tug is pushing the frigate into the dock.
|
|
Set in for the night....Next day would start early...
Next post will cover the first Navy Helicopter operations on the Funchal Harbour. |

restore stability in the region but also against civilians including shop owners tourists and passersby His remarks that hundreds of Tibetans lost lives also proved to be a sheer lie To restore peace and stability the local government maintained self tiffany restraint from the beginning of the outbreak of the riot Persuasive christian louboutin shoes When shopping for chanel bags handbags or other replica handbag brands rings you must always check the credibility of the company thatalks and warnings were used to deal with violence charms ghd In that round of violent clashes a total of civilians died not hundreds as the Dalai Lama put it And they were beaten
