Novel bow marking,
unusual box colors,
familiar port . . .
recognizable tugboat,
container with the “I” painted out,
certainly a container line marking I don’t recall seeing before,
oh wait . . . what did that character’s name mean in Swahili? And what’s been painted out is X-press Annapurna . . . same same, Hakuna Matata or Likambo te…, as I would say it back in the 1970s . . ..
no problem . . . . Any Lingala speakers out there today? Oh well, don’t worry be happy is the same.
All photos, WVD.
New container shipping lines have appeared in the boro here and here recently.
