My last walk on Livornese soil was at the end of August, you saw it in three installments during our holidays. The following pictures were taken aboard the two training ships actually in port, a short but very rewarding walk beginning with a polished compass on the “Palinuro”.
“Faventibus ventis” is the Latin for “by favourable winds”, which is the motto of the ship.
A brass cover, this time on board the “Amerigo Vespucci”.
Everything is neatly arranged on the deck of the “Vespucci”.
Beyond the polished brass and the netting, a view of the port.External links: Amerigo Vespucci (Wikipedia)

Wonderful post VP. Great your images.
Beautiful details on this ship.
All of these photos share a common subject: well polished and well preserved equipment on the ship.
ahhh, the details. That is what I love the most. Good job.

It's the little things that count.
And add to the ship's richness.
