| The Cunard Queen Victoria |
| Autumn Colours Cruise 2009 - Introduction |
This page is the introduction and summary of our second cruise on the Queen Victoria. It described as the Autumn Colours Cruise and took us from Southampton across the Atlantic to New York, where we spent two nights. We then worked our way up the Atlantic coast of the USA and Canada before crossing back from Newfoundland to Southampton - 24 days in total. We visited Boston, Portland Maine, Bar Harbor, Saint John New Brunswick, Halifax, and Quebec, but due to bad weather had to miss Newport Rode Island and St John's Newfoundland. The Queen Victoria is the latest addition to the Cunard fleet, named by the Duchess of Cornwall on 10 December 2007. We had been great fans of arguably the greatest ship of all time, the Cunard QE2 and had eagerly booked onto the start of the new Queen Victoria's first world cruise which is covered in a separate set of pages our The Queen Victoria's Maiden World Cruise - the sectors from Southampton to Los Angeles. There are also many pages on our web site covering our previous Cruising on the Queen Elizabeth 2
Now the QE2 has been sold, and we have cruised several times on the Queen Victoria, we see that this new Cunard Queen is going to become one of our favourites too. We have already booked another cruise although we also have to admit to cruises booked on the Queen Mary 2 and the Queen Elizabeth.
