Today the Annapolis Basin is home to a Cruise Ship. The Quest for Adventure's "Valletta" sailed through the Digby Gut and into the Annapolis Basin at approximately 1pm this afternoon. The town of Digby has been awaiting it's arrival and has spent the morning setting up vendors, scallop shucking demonstrations, as well as entertainment for our visitors from England.
There are also many buses down at the Digby Marina waiting to take our guests on tours of our area surrounding area, places like Bear River and Annapolis Royal. A stop on their voyage I'm sure they will enjoy very much, even if it is a short stay.
As I sit here in my livingroom looking out at the waters I am seeing one of the shuttle boats bringing passengers of the ship to shore, and tour buses already full of people driving by to begin their journey ashore. I hope they enjoy their stay, and come back to visit with us again soon.
Happy and Safe Travels

**Update** another article about the Ship.
Just wanted to update tonight with some shots of the ship as it left us tonight to head for St. John. Safe Travels, and good night to all on board, hope you all had a pleasant visit with us.
