Thanks Eric.

What a beautiful ship. She has those sleek classic lines. Pretty
impressive considering she's 150,000 tonnes.

Unless the photos are misleading, there appears to be a very large
number of 'obstructed view' cabins behind the life boats.

Yes, on deck 8 there are a whole lot of obstructed cabins. I got a
mailing "2004 Transatlantic Crossings" from Cunard today that has the
deck plans.

Wow! It really does have the look of an older ocean liner.

When it comes to ships, Jeff, I guess you might call me a "size queen."
I am very temted to sail on the QM2, but those prices will have to drop
a bit before I will give it a try.

according to the mailing they just sent me.

I'm definitely not a ship size queen, as our least fulfilling cruise was
on the largest ship we've ever sailed...the Golden Princess. I am a
balcony size queen though LOL! Got to have a big balcony!
