Rare HeinBloed Posted July 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted July 29, 2009 We are going on this weekend to a "weired" B2B... 4 nights on Fred Olsen's BOUDICCA followed by 2 nights on Cunard's QUEEN MARY 2 1973 (36 years as ROYAL VIKING SKY - SUNWARD - BIRKA QUEEN - GOLDEN PRINCESS - SUPERSTAR CAPRICORN - HYUNDAI KUEMGANG - GRAND LATINO) versus 2003 (6 years) 28,078 tons versus 148,258 tons 1,022 passengers versus 3,090 passengers A family run business versus a giant cruise group That's a HARDCORE programme with a lot of new and contrary impressions. I would like to blog again. But I am not sure how the connectivity will be on BOUDICCA for my netbook. There is an Internet Center onboard available but I am not sure if I can dock my USB-stick into their computers to transfer the pictures. Anyhow I would like to invite you to join me on BOUDICCA and QUEEN MARY 2. Have fun - so I do hope to have it on both ships. The beginning is here - pre-cruise matters... http://heinbloed-minis.blogspot.com/2009/07/lets-face-forward-to-boudicca-and-queen.html The English part is normally following with a short delay after the German part is published.

Rare HeinBloed Posted August 18, 2009 Author #2 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I am sorry to be extremely late: but I have good excuses: 1. the connectivity on BOUDICCA was more than lousy. They upgrade the internet-center... and the better: 2. we had a great time on BOUDICCA so no time to write - same on QUEEN MARY 2. But both ships: QUEEN MARY 2 and BOUDICCA had the same problems. So here you find the first day on BOUDICCA. The QUEEN MARY 2-fans need to wait few days more. Thanks for your patience. http://heinbloed-minis.blogspot.com/2009/08/tag-11-auf-der-day-11-on-boudicca-in.html http://heinbloed-minis.blogspot.com/2009/08/tag-12-auf-der-day-12-on-boudicca-in.html Regards, HeinBloed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
