2010 - 26 Days on the QM2

We used a page at blogspot, but I hate their photo-posting setup so much I put all the pictures here, and most of the commentary, too.

It's organized as pages of thumbnails with a comment on each. Click on the thumbnail itself to see it blown up to about projector size (1024x768), or click on the JPG file name above the thumbnail for the original (huge) photo file. I'd say less than half my snaps are in focus enough for that to be worthwhile.

In chronological order, mostly:

A few days in NYC before the QM2 left
Various things aboard ship over the voyage
The story of my grandmother's diary of her 1910 trip into the Mediterranean on the Carpathia
Into the Mediterrranean: Barcelona
The next day: Monaco. Ugh.
Aboard ship: The Days Are Just Packed
A wearing day in Rome
A rushed but mind-bending few hours in Pompeii
Leaving the Mediterranean: The Rock of Gibraltar
Around the Iberian Peninsula: A jeep tour around the Lisbon countryside
Back to England: soaked and nearly frozen at Stonhenge
