The new Queen Elizabeth is a very nice ship with tons of entertainment options onboard.
Now, if I could cruise on only one, it would be the Queen Mary 2, but I take Queen Elizabeth as my second choice. It has more shows and more dining options than Queen Victoria.
These Cunard ships are tailor made for socializing with fellow cruisers - lot of classes, enrichment, etc. Nice night balls in the ballrooms too. They really feature a lot of dancing.

This will be an awesome event! If you can't get on one of the ships there are local cruise lines that are offering special cruises that will take you down the river to view the ships and fireworks.
