Stunning Fred Olson Borealis cruise liner visits city

The stunning Borealis cruise liner docked in Liverpool today.

The Borealis, of Fred. Olsen cruises, can carry up to 1,360 passengers and 662 crew and weighs about 61,000 tonnes. She arrived in Liverpool this morning after leaving Malaga on Monday, at the end of a 27 day tour which took cruise-goers around Italy, Croatia, Montenegro and Spain.

It's far from the first time the cruise liner has been in Liverpool and she will make 17 other appearances on the Mersey before the end of the year.
