BrugesFrance1England1GuardFranceEnglandFour of our 19 days of vacation were actually spent on solid ground.  We visited Bruges, Normandy, Southampton and Windsor Castle.  Our visit to Southampton included a trip to the SeaCity Museum which has a huge exhibit dedicated to the Titanic, which sailed from there.  The second to the last photo shows the crowd that came to see us off in Cherbourg, France.  Our tour guide said the local radio programs were covering our arrival in minute detail.  Folks on the QM2 are having dinner right now!  The last photo shows the crowd that came to see us off in Southampton.  LOL!

    lol that’s so weird. I guess the QM2 has a large impact on the local economy in Cherbourg?

    Probably so. There were ‘Welcome QM2 Passengers’ signs everywhere. Also, Southampton is a regular stop for the ship. The French port, not so much.
