The seven days spent on the Queen Mary 2 was so relaxing! Almost too relaxing -- lots of seniors (Fred and I not to be excluded) catching daily naps in deck chairs lined up as far as the eye could see on the sunny starboard side. A wonderful, celebratory sail-away party took us under the Verrazano Bridge and away from New York harbor with dancing (well some folks were dancing), drinking, and music -- great fun! There was a good mix of ages, including quite a few kids -- predominately folks from England and Germany made up the guest list.
Of course we enjoyed sampling everything offered at the buffets, daily walks around the promenade deck and the requisite cocktail-of-the-day. Friday was wonderful -- somewhat of a wild and windy gray day with choppy waves -- what you would envision the north Atlantic waters would be like. The rest of the time was very calm with beautiful, cool weather.
Nice sounds like a relaxing time! Hope you are enjoying the sights of London.
