Rare Keith1010 Posted March 3, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2015 My wife and I are sailing the 2015 World Cruise on-board Crystal Serenity and we are in Sydney, Australia today with the Queen Elizabeth so I thought I would post two photos of the QE. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RLEidNzvC-Q/VPUZea-g2EI/AAAAAAAAsMY/oVC1NdD6r0I/s1600/DSC_0488.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OcbYw4Qnk3k/VPUZdqJi6MI/AAAAAAAAsMQ/MggUUSKYVAQ/s1600/DSC_0525.jpg Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oahucruiser Posted March 3, 2015 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Thanks, Keith. She's one of our favorites. We've been enjoying your blog each day. Hope the tenders that you had to take from Serenity didn't take long to get to the dock. Think the city put on some large tenders for you which would speed things up. Why does Serenity only stay one day in that fabulous city where there is so much to do? Enjoy your day; it looks beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 3, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Oahucruiser, you are very welcome. Sometimes we have the overnight and other times we don't and I believe it was because we couldn't secure the Circular Quay location of the second night but we had it for today. Evidently, we were bumped and the QE got the spot. The boats that they sent to take us back and forth were quite nice and the time was about 10 minutes to get to the drop-off point. Best to you.

Rare Solent Richard Posted March 3, 2015 #22 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Ah, I knew they were somewhere. It's just a year ago that my wife and I met up with Queen Mary 2 in Sydney. I thought it a good wheeze to climb one of the bridge pylons to hopefully get a good photograph of my favourite ship... Curiosity killed the cat as I wondered why so many people were on the fo'c'sle. A quick change of lens to telephoto and i couldn't believe my luck... They were doing that 10th birthday photo shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
