Luxury liner visits Manitoulin

About 200 people from around the world have been seeing what the Little Current area has to offer.  They’re passengers from the luxury liner the Pearl Mist.  The Pearl Mist, which has six decks and is 335 feet long, makes three more trips to the island over the rest of the summer.      Then in the fall another cruise liner, the MS Hamburg, visits the island twice.  The pearl Mist leaves Manitoulin on Friday but it’s back during the August long weekend for the Haweater festival.
