MS Queen Victoria, River Mersey
MS Queen Victoria, River Mersey
I'd already seen its two Cunard sister ships twice each, however, this was the first time I'd seen this one. The ship was at anchor in the River Mersey, after the Cunard 175 celebration. One can just make out the anchor chain at the bow. It's quite easy to differentiate the ship with its sisters, the Queens Elizabeth and Mary 2, as this one has sloping decks on the stern, whereas the Queen Elizabeth has a flat series of decks on the stern, and the Queen Mary 2 is somewhat larger than either of the others. The Liverpool Echo Arena is in the background, seen from Seacombe.
