One thrill of blogging is discovery; I photograph and then plumb my photos to see what I have. When I used to fish, I’d feel a rush when I brought a new specimen up. I get a similar rush now when a photo and some research connect me with something new. After a frisson from blue and yellow, this vessel offers some treats. Any idea where the name–Los Roques–derives from? See Old Orchard light in background.
You’re right if you guess Venezuela, and an archipelago there that beckons.

The claret hull of Los Roques reminds me of a good glass of burgundy!
Thanks for providing the links – I have had a great time browsing the many photos on those sites – ships are a marvellous world unto themselves, and it is amazing to be able to see the complex structures that permit these behemoths to function!
