QE2 Postcard from Rob Lightbody
Postcard sent to me from Qe2
Originally uploaded by MagicTyger
A postcard I received Rob Lightbody while he was on his QE2 Mediterranean cruise in August 08.
I’ll never get to cruise on QE2 myself, so someone sending a card to me while they were cruising on her is about as close as I’ll get.
Thanks Rob, for letting me vicariously share a bit of history with you.
A very welcome post card
I received this postcard today from Kai in Germany, and I thought I would share it with you.
Kai very kindly sent the postcard via Postcrossing – a website that lets you exchange postcards with random people, and make new friends.
I was pleasantly surprised to receive this card, because I think she is such a wonderful ship.
QE2 visited the Baltic in 2004, when this photo was taken by Wolfgang Kromer.
Kai is a prolific postcrosser. He has sent postcards more than 1.1 million kilometres in the last two years, to make him one of the most active members in Germany.
Congratulations, Kai, and thanks once again!

Awesome Photos
The Liners List at Yahoo Groups has some fantastic photos of ships.
Here’s some recent shots of QE2 and QV crossing the Atlantic Ocean in Tandem.
