Canadian Pacific Empress of Britain 1931
Travel poster featuring the 40,000 ton cruise ship Empress of Britain getting ready for her maiden voyage.
Nice art deco building. But seems to be away nowadays. I have not seen it when we stopped there with QM2.
When cruising was traveling
Once, and it is not as far as some may think, the only way to travel between Europe and America was sailing the oceans. My upcoming December posts will remind the time without jet-lags.
Now with closing 2014 business coming near it is time to look back. And the best thing I did was to sail from Hamburg to New York with Queen Mary 2. Travelling like in interbellum times. Formal dinners and Gin Tonic. I now take the opportunity to post my sea and cruising favorites.
