The journey is coming to an end. We had a wonderful time and
it perfectly matched our needs. It was very relaxing – even though we had high
winds, huge waves, overcast skies and rain. Entertainment was always available
all day and night. There was always food in sight and it was hard to stick with
healthy choices when the most delicate deserts were twinkling at us. So for 10
days we tossed all health and weight concerns out of the window and ate
whatever our taste buds desired.
Cunard provided an excellent service. All staff members were
most helpful, always very friendly, looked after our room twice a day to keep
it spotless and waited on us royally. If we requested something or voiced a
need, the response followed within minutes. It will take a moment to get back
to the reality of having to cook our own food and then to do the dishes. It is
super easy to get really lazy in this environment. – Just what we needed –
Now, almost all the bags and suitcases are packed and ready
to go. Waiting for the washer and dryer to be done to complete the packing. We
place the luggage outside our state room and it will magically, in silence,
disappear until tomorrow morning when we leave this beautiful ship.
We, wholeheartedly, recommend travelling on the Queen Mary
2. This will not be our last time. We are already looking at west bound crossings
into New York.
You will hear from us again tomorrow.
