A Disney cruise ship which spent almost three months moored up in Kent is heading back to the county.
Those who missed out on seeing the 11-deck entertainment liner in Dover now have a second chance to do so.
Disney Magic is due back in the port at 6pm this evening following a two-day trip to Brest in north-west France.
It is thought the ship did crew transfers with its sister cruise liner, Disney Fantasy, which had sailed to Europe for refit.
Now, Disney Magic, which has a huge Goofy hanging from the stern and sports Mickey Mouse silhouettes on its large funnels, is making its way along the Channel back to Dover.
As of 3pm, it has just entered waters off the Kent coast - meaning it could soon be spotted from Hythe and Folkestone.
The vessel does not have any planned cruises until October - suggesting its second stay in Dover could, again, be potentially lengthy.
