Hi!

Great pics Joe! They couldn't have come at a better time. I am building a model of her and have been looking for some detailed shots of the aft deck areas. Yours are just what I have been looking for. I am using the hull of a 1/450 scale model I bought over twenty years ago. I am going to build everything else from scratch. The aft decks are the only things I am worried about. Your pics are going to be a tremendous help.

Looks like you had a great time. I hope I get a chance to sail on her before she is gone. I am going to need to wait on a few more tables first, though.

Well, I better get busy on this model. I already took twenty-some-on years to open the box!

Smooth Seas,
Michael534

Much appreciated and thanks for posting your pictures of the old lady. I always enjoy seeing pictures of the QE2 and yours have superb details which is great in spotting changes made during her career.

Thumps up for you Joe!

Best, Onno

Joe: I did not see the picture of your wife breaking the record for packing (for four). I hope you got one for the sake of recording history.

Let's not be sexist! Joe may have done the packing?

True, True! However in this case I seem to remember Joe stating that his wife did the packing.

I would never say such a thing. I am far too politically correct to do something like that...

What I said was

Packed in record time and caught the train to NYC and were on board with a couple of hours to spare.

I stand corrected! I meant no harm and I actually am in awe and admire whomever did the packing as quick as was stated.
