Big boats in the harbour

On Tuesday 20/2/07 the Queen Mary 2 and the Queen Elizabeth 2 passed each other in Sydney Harbour.

Rosie had the great idea to turn our annual St Barnabas Terraces Senior residents and Concil dinner into a Harbour Cruise to see the two fine ladies.

The QE2 is in the top picture she was pretty big but not as big as her sister the QM2 below.



It was a major event on the Harbour, there were boats everywhere and people lined up along the shorelines just to see these two cruise ships! I hadn't expected it to be such a big thing for the people of Sydney.

As it got dark there were even fireworks - I have never been so close to fireworks in my life, we were right underneath them and the noise was incredible!

It was a really fun night!
