Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. It's a spring 2006 Mediterranean cruise we were considering for the QE2, so it would be great to hear your comments. Have a wonderful time.

I found the Caronia a more comfortable experience than the QM2--even in terms of steadiness at sea. I guess we've been seeking to replicate the ambience of that trip in some way, and it seems like the QE2 may just be where that's possible.
