  Nausicaa is a great example, Paul. A year-round attraction that keeps people going to Boulogne despite the fact that it has lost its own ferry link. The port does a great job in attracting the cruise lines, but the town needs to do more to show these people that we actually welcome them and their money. For example, next year Carnival Cruise Line will be operating a series of cruises from Dover on the Carnival Liberty. The clientele will be predmoninantly American, so there is an opportunity for the Town to start thinking about what they could do to welcome this influx of Americans, who will not doubt be looking to spend their money. As Boulogne has shown, you have to speculate to accumulate! Liverpool has joined the hunt for cruise business, and the new Enderby Wharf cruise terminal in Greenwich will be a major draw being so close to London. A strategy needs to be formulated now for Dover to truly capitalise on this trade.
