Think it was mentioned a few weeks back that she would be here. Saw her this morning, very impressive even at anchor 3 or 4 km out. Quite massive compared to most visiting cruise ships.

Would love to get across and see her, but do not have the time. Anyone in that area who can take a photo and upload it please?

Yeah a pic would be nice if anyone is over that way. cheers. Leaves at 5pm i believe.

Passed between KPN and Samui at about 7 pm

yeah saw it this morning, did not realize it was QE 2 .... much larger than most of the cruise ships that stop off Nanthon... there's been a lot lately.

One wonders, where & what these people do on Samui for the day..... ?

I would have stopped this evening regardless.... but it was gone... as there was a lovely sunset on a very calm sea.

Win on the scratch cards and have a 2 hour timeshare tour- after have a suit made there and then all ready for the captains dinner sailing into the sunset..................

Whens the next Cruise in?

It was the Queen Elizabeth not the QE 2. I believe the QE 2 is no longer in service. Have a look at Cunard's website. One very fancy ship. Won't be back this way probably for months if not until this time next year. On a world voyage right now and on its' way back to Southampton

I saw four coaches full of passengers approaching Choengmon yesterday with 'Cunard' boards on the front.

They were the blue/white buses normally doing the Bangkok-Suratthani (99) daily bus service, I think.

Don't know if they were stopping there or going on to Chaweng.

Maybe they stopped at Big Buddha first?

The other one was here last year on it's maiden voyage. Queen Victoria was here & Queen Mary 2 to Bangkok.

Just out of interest I checked their website to book a round the world cruise (106 days) next January from Southampton and back.

Very disappointed to see that their most expensive suite, the Grand was already fully booked at a cost of $243,974.

But at least their cheapest option, an inside cabin is still available at $21,994.

Must get my reservation booked quickly.

Just wondering about these cruises. Does the price includes food, or is it only accomandation?

Usually all food except perhaps at specific restaurants. Soft drinks included too - or a daily allowance. Alcohol extra. Some cruises will include just about everything, others will be more basic.

Food pretty up market menu ! As pointed out included in the price for most of it... but not sure if booze "duty free" ... it used to be, certainly in International waters... .

Mr Yorkie had better get booking for 2014! for that Grand Suite... I'll gladly carry your suite cases!!!! ...

Cruises are all inclusive.

Nice.. one day I have to try it out... just for the experience.

I don't think I would get past the Lunch,before I became "Im Law"for the rest of the day.Must leave some room for the Beer Champagne and Caviar.I'd give it my best shot though.

Unfortunately I would need to be picked up by some Dowager Duchess, or widowed Princess,who took a fancy to my boyish looks,style, and riveting conversation...............ahhh! back to reality,bottles of Leo,and a trip on a long boat,which I can afford.

would like to take a look, but would never ever join such a cruise, only if get fantastic paid for that.

Nothing wrong with that at all. They don't know what they are missing.Give me that any day.

Yeah much more informal & you don't need to wear a "dicky bow tie" or fancy suite, for dinner and try to keep one step ahead of the "Jones's"
