Love those whistles (horns). Makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, and brings a tear to the eyes.

Thanks for posting this, Zider. I was with you on QM2 that day and I have to say that Queen Elizabeth 2's reply was a surprise and a great delight. I never thought I'd hear that wonderful sound again.

Hello Zider,

 

Thank you so much for providing your video and the link. Being on the QE2 seven times between 1993 and 2002, seeing her in Dubai with no future plans to take on passengers to sail again, was rather sad.

 

It was nice to hear the QE2 horn again. I thought by now everything on board was shut down. Watching the QM2 pulling away from the QE2 was as if two sisters spent some time together for the day, but had to part and say goodbye.
