Description
Here’s another one from Dad that he let me upload. This is the Himalaya cruise ship, in Sydney. It was scrapped many years ago, from what Dad said. He initially thought the photo was of another ship called the Oronsay, but the writing on the back here proved otherwise. This is from March, 1972 — the same day as the lighthouse photo at Blues Point in my gallery, which I uploaded just before this photo!
Check out the sunlight on that background building. It looks weird!
The ship to the right says: Elpis. “Elpis! We’re sinking!” Just kidding. :-P
I don’t know if it’s this one at this site: www.shipspotting.com/photos/32… or some other one. There could be dozens with that name perhaps.
Anyhow, do comment on either one if you wish. I think there’s a video on YouTube about the Himalaya, but I haven’t had time to get to that.

(As this photo is used with permission from my Dad, please don’t re-upload it elsewhere or use it for any other purpose. You can download it and look at it yourself, but that’s about all.)
