Russia's Kruzenshtern, a four-masted tall ship built in 1926, sailed under Lion's Gate Bridge and into Vancouver harbour this morning. The ship and its 120 sailors are visiting Vancouver during the Olympics, as ambassadors from the host country of the 2014 Winter Games.
It will be docked in North Vancouver east of Lonsdale Quay. Anyone taking the SeaBus across the harbour or strolling around Lonsdale Quay should get a good view. It will likely be open for public tours, too.
