Super Tight Squeeze

“It might be time for the phrase: ‘We’re gonna need a bigger boat’ to enter retirement. For this mighty vessel, the largest ever passenger ship, dwarfs all that stands next to it, making the thousands of spectators which came to see it’s launch look little more than ants as they waved the graceful ship out of the port. The 315m-long ship is so wide it barely squeezed out of the Papenberg watergates, but ably helped by two tug-boats it escaped on it’s to the North sea, where it will head to Denmark.” w/ photos
