The 2 Queens in Auckland today 19 March


Recommended Posts

On QM2. Yes we have a very nice white tent to go through on Jellicoe wharf.

They are busing us to shed 10.

The buses (or at least one bus in the wee hours) will be going 24/7.

We leave on Saturday night.

After all the changes we have had it ended up being a beautiful sail in and afternoon

For anyone in Auckland interested in seeing QM2 sail away on Saturday evening , the Maritime Museum have organised a special sailing of the historic scow Ted Ashby.

I am sure other cruise boats will be offering a sail away cruise as well. We followed QE2 out of the harbour once on a party cruise.......It was very "jolly":D:D

Heres the link to the Museums tour..

Arrived into Auckland this afternoon and as we crossed the bridge we saw this view:

I think QM2 is in the Bay of Islands Monday. Will post another pix.

 

Great timing for the photo as you drove over the bridge.:)

 

She is scheduled in Bay of Islands on Sunday...

Thanks for the photo.

You have scored a glorious autumn day in the Bay today. A zoom lens sure makes a difference. Heres a grab from a shore based cam. You can just make out QM2 , almost hidden between the trees.
