Cunard ship in town

We got a great view of the MS Queen Victoria this morning coming into Gruz Harbour, as we drove along the highway to work. Stopping at a good vantage point we saw her sweep easily into the dock. Fantastic October autumn day, so the passengers and crew will surely have an excellent day exploring Dubrovnik's Old Town. As Edin knows some Croatian crew (formerly of QE2, Dynasty and Princess) he was off to meet his old mates for coffee! Cunard's red funnel and waterline stripe does set their ships apart from the other cruisers.

We await the arrival of Queen Elizabeth in the coming days. At 92,000 gross tons she is larger than the Queen Victoria, so hope she is able to dock too rather than be at anchor.
