Britain gave birth to government now used all over the world, Britain gave the world the greatest writers, Britain was the first great modern empire, Britain have one of the most varied history’s in the modern world. Britain never gave up in 2 world wars. Britain was happy to admit when it was wrong. Britain helped to mould Europe. Britain gave birth to America. Britain was and still is one of the greatest countrys in the world and I think the United kingdom should be dropped for Great Britain. And for our American and younger fans, Britain was in the 2nd war, and was the only European country to hold out, contrary to popular belief and Hollywood hype. We still have pride in this country and although the cost of the wars was a major drain the debt was paid in full and it would be nice if American history was based on fact rather than hype. Oh yes, the QE2 was built where?

I can feel a letter to the “Times” coming on

I think it is terrible that an upstart like Carnival can own the most famous and traditional cruise line in the civilised world.

What next – souvenir baseball caps?

Sincerely Yours,

The British are pretty good at fish and chips (although I might have to give the french fries to Holland…mayo, the perfect condiment), chocolate (Cadbury’s versus Hershey’s? No contest!), Bakewell Tarts (my favorite), and tea (because apparently, there’s not a good cup to be had in all of America). I also have to thank my English grandmother for my sincere love of burnt vegetables :0)

Great photos of the “Queen”! Micky should be proud of what his vision has accomplished in all aspects of Carnival!

Good Morning John!
What are the British good at? They are running an airline that does not charge you for every little thing. They even give you a small toothbrush and toothpaste. Tyler found this to be extremely helpful when he forgot to pick up his luggage!
They also came up with fish and chips! Yum! We found a great place to get this near Hampton Court Palace.
The castles are beautiful. Our daughter,Nikki, follows the series on television-The Tudors. We spent the day before sailing at Hampton Court Palace. It was beautiful. So much history and lovely gardens also. They were having some type of flower show that day in the gardens. The train was loaded with people going to the flower show.
Anyway, we really enjoyed England.
More Later!

Hi John/Heidi:
Great pics of Mr. Arison and the QE2.
Its going to be very interesting to see how this works out for her in Dubai. I hope it becomes a huge selling point for their tourism (Not that they need any additional help).
FYI…I think when the Olympics roll through London in a few years, you guys will have a lot to show the world what you are famous for.
Plus, the food is great too.
Thanks again,
David

Hi John,

What have the British given us? Why you of course John.

And if not for the British, there probably wouldn’t be the United States (sorry John).

But Shakespeare, Monty Python, the Beatles, Harry Potter, Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Great photos of the QE2. And I echo what someone said before, thank you Micky Arison for investing in Cunard and making it even better.

Hugs,
Carol

Yes John, I guess thanks should go to CCl and Micky Arison for taking Cunard and making it better. Isn’t amazing how pictures sometimes really do say a thousand words? Those pics above really made me realize what a majestic ship the Queen Elizabeth really is! I’m gonna go back now and read the last couple of blogs which I evidently missed…

Hi, ‘Bye & love to you all,
