And those on the QE2 had this view. One of the only times l had wished  l was on QM2 was to see QE2
From the moment you first glimpsed the Queen,
 you just knew you were in for a very special time ahead.!

Photo from Brad Donaldson taken from QM2 on Transatlantic tandem crossing when QM2 took over the Cunard flagship title.



That photo of qe2 charging towards the camera is superb.

It would be a good one for Dubai to have/use to show her in her element

so I recut some video and added a song that I like...  hope you like it too.   :)




The audio will be blocked in Germany and Austria.   ::)

This video says so much about QE2.  The fabulous tone of her horn and the humour of the bridge crew sounding the horn.  The video also demonstrates how passengers were happy to be on deck for the occasions, rather than in their cabins (not many balconies)

Worth watching!

10 – 16 October   QE2's Final westbound transatlantic crossing. Videos in this topic show her gliding through the waves - doing what she does best!

Any of our members on this crossing?  Please share your memories.

Im only sorry the pics show the monster and not more of The Queen, but you get the idea.
