HAPPY BIRTHDAY, 'QUEEN MARY 2'!

The Three Queens arrive at Southampton (Cunard)
A special occasion calls for a special celebration. On May 9, Cunard Line marked the 10th anniversary of Queen Mary 2 with a rare opportunity to view all Three Queens together – Queen Mary 2, Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria in their home port of Southampton.
The ships arrived to the sounds of “Happy Birthday” from the ships' foghorns. This was followed by a special reception and lunch aboard Queen Mary 2 for His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh, "who last visited the ship when accompanying Her Majesty The Queen to name her in 2004."

We also want to wish Queen Mary 2 a very happy birthday, and many more to come! Here are some photos and videos from Cunard that captured the festivities:
