Port of Felixstowe

On Saturday we just happened to be sailing past the container ships in the Port of Felixstowe. I was amusing myself by looking at the names of the ships. Emma was there and so was a ship called Laura. Emma certainly looked huge, but I didn't realise at the time that she is the biggest container ship built!
