Cruise ships 2004 in PR	Many locals see opportunity here
	Here is SE AK schedule all cruise ships – here is link to each ship

Norwegian Sky docked in Victoria BC (10/03)

The Rupert Advantage??

Sorry folks the ships need a BC port to stop in --- so tours that begin in Seattle (or SF) – stop here of ‘necessity’

Still it is a chance to develop the market—

(Combine with RR tours --- good idea)

Need some background material? Here are books available at NWCC here in PR (below)
