I am aboard the QM2 right now for a back2back transatlantic crossing

Yesterday on June 19th, I boarded the QM2 in New York for a back2back transatlantic crossing.I am enjoying myself and the QM2 is great as always.The captain aboard for these 2 back2back crossings is Captain Nick Bates and he does have a colorful way of speaking to the passengers over the public address system and tonight us passengers in the Britannia class staterooms do get a chance to meet him at a cocktail party.This morning Maritime Author Bill Miller gave a lecture in Illuminations about the history of the Great Atlantic Liners talking of course about the Cunard Queens,S.S.United States,Italian Line,French Line,German Line and the White Star Line and of course the Titanic always does get mentioned in these lectures.Bill Miller will continue his lecture tomorrow which of course I will attend again.I will write more tomorrow.
