    ... man, it looked like a floating city had just been erected in front of my house! but no, it was the 'star princess' traveling north up malaspina strait. i was surprised at how close it was to shore! big boat!

    It is a floating city. I was on the Royal Princess a few months ago.

    ... thanks for your replies ...

    ... i was pretty thrilled to see it actually. i was a big fan of the love boat TV show as a teenager and i would've been absolutely awestruck to have seen it up close back then like i did that night last summer. it was like seeing a TV star when it sailed by!

    That particular ship is retiring this year. It has been in service all this time. It's a dwarf ship now compared to modern cruise liners.
