I'm in Sydney visiting our middle son and his family, and I saw in the Port of Sydney Shipping list that QM2 was in town today. She is making a couple of visits this time as part of her 2013 World Cruise so, as it's an absolutely stunning day, I decided to go in to have a look at her. She was here on our last visit to Sydney but was berthed at the Garden Island naval facility, and I could not get very near to her. This time, however, she is in the Overseas Passenger Terminal, which meant I was able to get almost within touching distance of her. She is a massive vessel, a fact that is brought home when one gets really close to her, and anyone who has ever travelled on her will confirm.
Needless to say I took numerous photos, several of which appear below.
