Many forms of security, all to achieve the same end

In the harbour at St Petersburgh we saw this armed patrol boat which had a team of scuba divers aboard, checking and maintaining the safety of the cruise liners.

 Next stop Oslo where these two patrol cars were parked up near the Parliament building,  obviously Police cars,  no need for a Gaelic translation like we have here in Scotland.

 Two very pleasant young lady officers patrolling in the park area between the Parliament and the Royal Palace in Oslo.

 And finally, although we saw this plane on the second day of our cruise as we sailed through the Keil Canal,  obviously a military plane which kept circling over the MV Balmoral,  however we eventually saw that it was doing circuits and bumps on an airfield not far from the Canal zone.
