Unusual Ft. Lauderdale sailaway

[eroller]

It's unusual to see one Cunard ship in an American port but two on the same day is unheard of!

 

Peter,

 

Why do you call her Icky Vicky?

 

 

Only QM2 in Port Everglades today. That other photo of QV must have been from another day.

 

QV got the nickname "Icky Vicky" mainly because of her rather brown decor. She is still a lovely ship and better than any of the HAL Vistas IMO.

Now this is what a proper ship looks like! I just love QM2 and took these today of her in Port Everglades from my special perch. She and the Disney ships are probably my favorite looking.

She certainly is a nice looking ship.

QM2 has the sleek lines - very nice, very elegant.

QV is at Port Canaveral.

 

Thanks for the explanation about QV.

Great pictures!!

I see that she is scheduled to leave at 6 PM.

We will be eating dinner at that time.

So I will miss her sail away.

I'm headed to a friend's room at Pier 66 hotel so the perfect spot to watch her sail away ... with a good bottle of wine of course!

Watching the QM2 on both Port Everglades and Ft Lauderdale Web cams. Is she still leaving at 18:00?

[Scrapnana]

The schedule still has her at 1800. I do hope she sails before dark.

[St Pete Cruiser]

Thanks Scrapnana. Let go the lines. We don't have all night.

[Scrapnana]

Looks like the people on her stern are ready for a sail-away!

We have had three Cunard ship in New York at the same time - twice! :)

 

Why do you call her Icky Vicky?

 

That is a nickname she got amongst Cunard fans; they did not like her in the beginning. She wasn't the QE2 or QM2.

No, QV was in Cape Canaveral today. (She is actually still there: http://portcanaveralwebcam.com/)

 

She will be in Port Everglades tomorrow.

I don't see a white truck anywhere.:(

[Scrapnana]

Sounds like she is waiting for a bus.

[St Pete Cruiser]

Well, that cargo ship came in. Do you have sound?

[kftw]

I thought I had missed seeing her leave. She's beautiful.

[Lizzie68]

Well, that cargo ship came in. Do you have sound?

 

Yes, the audio is working fine. Try refreshing.

[Lizzie68]

Some action there?

[Scrapnana]

Maybe 1915, waiting on passengers, bus not at airport and one passenger to disembark. :eek::eek:

[Boytjie]

Sailed QM2 out of New York; great sail-away with helicopters and all. :)

 

I have to make dinner... will have to keep an eye on the PC for any activity.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Just cleaned up from dinner and didn't expect to see the Queen Mary 2 still at the dock.

Maybe I will get to se her sail away.

That doesn't sound good that one passenger is going to disembark.

[DeeniEncinitas]

I will be watching.
