Coronation Celebrations Part 2 - Queen Victoria

[Solent Richard]

I've been asked to share a couple of photographs that have appeared on one of my FB Cunard Groups. They have attracted particularly good comments.

 

Not wishing them to be lost in the other thread which appears to have moved into apps and dining, I trust they will illustrate the more attractive side of Cunard's Coronation efforts. To quote the entry....

 

This is Ian and Roger the ships florists who worked through the night for 9 hours to complete this incredible crown ready for 6.20am today. The ships carpenter created the structure and took him 3 days.

 

 

The display includes the King Charles Rose, Scottish Thistles and Cornflowers. A great deal of thought, planning and care has gone into to this.

Amazing effort...

 

 

 

Amazing? Thats almost an understatement.

It was a brilliant voyage, fabulous Coronation celebrations, amazing good weather, fabulous food, great dancing in the Queens Room, and a wonderful atmosphere with pretty much everyone dressing up for the Gala nights. Superb and shame to be going home.
