This is the Tall Ship Kalmar Nyckel that was docked at the Bristol Wharf over the weekend. The event was very crowded Saturday so I went back yesterday when I saw it was still there. During the event, they offered boat rides and tours of the vessel although those weren't offered yesterday. However the pier was still accessible for photos.

A few more of the tall ship although I haven't had time to edit all of the images yet.

In this first pic, one of the carved faces belongs to a man who has volunteered for at least 13,000 hours. From what I read, all the people who help are volunteers when this sails up and down the eastern coast of the USA. The ship is loaded with intricate carvings.

Another image that shows some people need the skills of Spiderman to climb these ropes.

And I think this was the most butt-ugly of carvings on the entire ship. Lol.
