This Monday is the maiden voyage of the new 800 million dollar Queen Mary 2 from Southhampton England. Southhampton, as you remember, was the departing port for the ill fated Titanic a few years back. I hope they have some binoculars on board this time. The new liner is as big as a 21 story building and has all kinds of swimming pools, restaurants and theatres. It holds 2100 people and the 14 day maiden voyage from Southhampton to Ft Lauderdale Florida will cost you up to $48,000. Forty eight grand and you only get to Ft Lauderdale?! I think I'll save the money and just hang out at West Edmonton Mall for a couple of weeks.
