QE2 AT SEA OFF PORTUGAL 02-06-2006

QE2 IN LISBON 11-05-2006 (I)

Following her visit to Lisbon on 21st April 2006, at the very end of another world cruise, the QUEEN ELIZABETH 2 sailed to Southampton and was dry-docked in Germany, returning to cruise service in May for another call in Lisbon on 11th May on her way to the Mediterranean. She docked in Lisbon very early in the morning, but the weather was just fine by mid afternoon when she put to sea, so another series of photographs were taken with great pleasure. Here it is a sample of what I got.

QE2 IN LISBON 11-05-2006 (II)

I never get tired of taking new photographs of the Cunard RMS QUEEN ELIZABETH 2. One of the most successful passenger ships of the twentieth century she is now quite an old Lady, but looks ageless and better than ever.
