    We were on this cruise with you. Actually in one scene. Beautifully filmed. Magnificent ship and trip. Very traditional cruising on an ocean liner. Many nooks and crannies to call “your own” and relax! Thank you so much for this lovely “post card”!

    What a fantastic video James! You managed to capture the ship so nicely. Calm and dignified, just like Queen Mary 2 is. I always had a fascination for ocean liners and I'll be taking my mom on QM2 in autumn, I'll show her your video too. Thank you for sharing

    Great video - haven’t cruised Cunard yet - the ships look so gorgeous, love the wooden decks and proper deckchairs 😊. New subscribers.

    Excellent video!
    I was on this same voyage. You captured a lot of evocative moments - I especially liked:
    ... two Staten Island ferries crossing in front of the Statue of LIberty after dark
    ...the ""8 bells" ceremony
    ...the shots of the Christmas tree in the lobby
    ...the man practicing dancing (by himself?) in the Queen's Room
    ...images of the Christmas buffet, which I somehow missed.
    I also liked the soft jazz musical background - for me, those sounds capture the feeling of a melancholy New York City twilight.
    Thanks!

    What a relaxing and beautiful film! Thank you for the care and attention you put into this. It don't think I've seen another video that is quite able to capture what it's like on board. My husband and I will be sailing Cunard for the first time this year (his first cruise ever) and I am eagerly awaiting!
    What was the experience on board socializing with the other passengers? Were they friendly? I'm afraid my husband and I will stick out like a sore thumb, but I find older crowds are often the easiest strangers to talk to anyway. Many times they've been through too much of life to care what people look like or what their religion is!

    Is there any special events or meals for Thanksgiving, a American holiday and not universal.

    • @JMTRAVELS
      @JMTRAVELS  5 місяців тому

      I'm sure special events are determined by where the ship is positioned at the time. But it is a British cruise line..and Cunard leans towards that heritage.
