Long Beach, California is the place to be on March 12, 2013, at 6:30 p.m when Cunards newest ocean liner, Queen Elizabeth, stops by to visit the legendary Queen Mary before heading for the Panama Canal.
Its a reunion of two great Cunard names that has not taken place for forty-five years. "The key to budget travel is to plan onward. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new destinations we have never been before, the truth of cost and budgeting is generally in the back of our thoughts. Arranging and expending our travel budget properly is a main concern for most families. Minimizing consuming and fees, while still experiencing your vacation to its fullest, is the key to assured success and fiscal liability. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking regarding protecting money while traveling is simple: Even if your personal funds is extremely tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also recalling that while traveling, whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel charge!..". It was September 25, 1967 that the Queen Mary, about to make her last transatlantic voyage in Cunard service, passed her sister ship, the original Queen Elizabeth. Both captains stood on deck as the whistle of each ship sounded. It was the last time the two ships would cross paths---until now, that is, when the Queen Elizabeths 90,000 ton namesake makes a special appearance in Long Beach.
Its history in the making--a once-in-a-generation opportunity that will include whistle salutes by both ships, live musical entertainment and a dazzling fireworks display.
