Queen Elizabeth 2 in Barbados today!

[Aplmac]

In early morning light QE2 sailed into Bridgetown Port, BARBADOS.

 

Yours Truly was there to record this uncommon event.

Great photos, but disappointed there is no sign of Malcolm posing on the propeller:(.

As compensation, here's another photo you haven't seen.

Well..I'm not so sure now!

 

 

I'm assuming you meant that he might be posturing on the spare props

usually stored on the bow deck :confused:

 

-in which case you may want to inspect this photo(below) more closely

to see if you might recognise the chap standing proud, right up front

directing the whole operation as it were!

 

Or would that be the Pilot's job, up on the Bridge?

 

Oh well.. let him have his fun - he's harmless enough.

Nice pictures, thanks.

[Aplmac]

Nice pictures, thanks.

 

Thanks Jon....LOVED your little signature thing wot sez

"Slumming it is going by plane"

 

God isn't that just the absolute truth, these days! :eek:

think I'll soon be down to the Port again today

to see if I can get any meaningful Goodbye shots of her

as she leaves around sunset.

She was about an hour late departing Barbados Saturday evening.

You're very welcome: I got out of bed at 5:40 to get them for you! :)

Wife said she's coming along too, and did...now that's bravery.

 

She also came along to do the p.m. shots...that's devotion? :D
