Cruise ship reaches Vancouver with dead whale

A cruise ship arrived at the Port of Vancouver with a dead whale lodged in its bow. The Princess Cruise Lines' Sapphire Princess was docked at the Canada Place terminal Saturday with the whale stuck to it. It wasn't immediately clear when it arrived or when the collision occurred. Several tourists visiting one of the city's most impressive downtown destinations took pictures of the whale. Some employees at Canada Place, home to the Vancouver Convention Centre and the Pan Pacific Hotel, also walked over to stare at the mammal. The terminal draws thousands of passengers travelling to Alaska every summer.
