The morning has broken, as the sun rises above the Pelee Clipper, one of the many commercial fishing boats that dock at Kingsville Harbour, found on the north shore of Lake Erie. In the background is the ferry the M.V. Pelee Islander II, also docked waiting to begin another season of carrying passengers and vehicles across to Pelee Island.

26th October 2015 - A night time view of the historic Princes Dock in Liverpool (My office on the left..).
Princes Dock is mentioned in the novel Redburn, His First Voyage by Herman Melville (1849):
"In magnitude, cost and durability the docks of Liverpool surpass all others in the world... for miles you may walk along that riverside, passing dock after dock, like a chain of immense fortresses. Prince's Dock, of comparatively recent construction, is perhaps the largest of all and is well known to American sailors from the fact that it is mostly frequented by the American shipping."
It is also were the vast majority of American GI's first stepped foot onto English soil during the second world war. Princes Dock has long been known as an American shipping dock which has certain connotations for me as I work for an American shipping company that is based (at present) on that same dock.
All the men, aircraft, tanks and artillery not to mention the vast amounts of supplies to keep them all running came through this very dock in the early stages of the American participation of World War II.
From this location,on 28 May 1865, a ship called The Mimosa sailed for Patagonia, South America, to establish a Welsh colony in that far off land.

Victoria Dock in Caernarfon.
This was first built in the 1860's, and intended mostly for the import of timber from Scandinavia.
In 1997 the Victoria Dock was purchased by Gwynedd Council.
