3. Close fit, huh?
When she was in LA last year, she sailed a close as possible to the orginal Queen Mary in Long Beach. As the QM2 sailed out to sea the QM blew her horns and the QM2 responced. It was like "Hey, girl you be safe now honey" - "Ok Momma! I'll see you soon."

6. I know, right?
This would have been one of those "San Franciscan things" that I would have done when I lived there.

8. We emigrated from England aboard her in 1972.
Southampton to New York. I barely remember it, though, because I was five. I have some fond memories of her, though.

10. Ooop, my bad!
I thought she looked like she put on some weight since 1972.

But then who hasn't?
