Big cruise day Southampton

[Johnthed0g]

Just got back in from Victoria park ..What a sight!! first to appear was ''our" Oceana beautiful ship I think, followed by QM2 which seemed to take ages to reverse out of the QE11 berth but soon came down the channel, what a big ship, filled my binoculars, then the Independence of the Seas emerged from the docks to our right, looked small compared to the "Mary," Black Watch sort of scurried past & last of all the odd looking Grand Princess. At one time the procession was right in front of us & for a few minutes you could see all of them, Oceana doing the second turn past Calshot whilst QM & IOTS were just behind with Black Watch & Grand princess right in front. Only down side was I was promised an ice cream or a cake but didn't get either!!
