With three classes of passengers in a smallish ship it was quite a cosy little community for those of us in first class. Not like the massive floating cities that comprise modern cruise ships.

The voyage took six weeks, we had more fun than I recall ever having had since.

By way of detail, in 1964 the ship was no longer white, the hull was painted black after the war. The ship was scrapped in China in 1968.
