Beach Weather

With a temperature just edging above zero C and bright sun, it was perfect beach weather (for some people) as they explored Black Rock Beach at low tide, and incidentally took in the arrival of  Atlantic Star and  Augusta Sun.

Snow was washed away below the high tide mark, but remained above the mark and left a thin  coating on what are normally black rocks when they are wet.

Once Atlantic Star had worked its way up through the harbour past the Narrows, it was perfectly framed between smoke stack and pylon before passing under the MacKay bridge.

Soon after,  Augusta Sun picked its pilot and made its way in for pier 31.

The ship is arriving from Moa, Cuba, on its regular route for Nirint Line.
