Queen Mary 2

Talk about starting with a bang. The first of this year's cruise liners only happened to be the Queen Mary 2, the biggest and best of them all.

As was befitting such a visitor, the sun was shining for her arrival and departure.

Blue skies welcome the QM2 on her arrival
Cunard liner, QM2 sails gracefully towards the terminal
The familiar Cunard colours of the QM2
QM2 canting before backing towards her berth
Crowds gather on the Esplanade to wave goodbye to the QM2
QM2 towering over the estuary control building
Local tug Anglegarth watches as QM2 sails past
Anglegarth gives QM2 a two cannon water salute as she departs
Haste ye back, queen of the seas
