The Queen Of High Society

While we were in Long Beach, California this weekend, among the many things we did, taking a stroll on the Queen Mary was one of them.

Their website says, "The Majestic Queen Mary offers you the chance to step back in time aboard one of the most famous ocean liners in history. Going back to the days where steamships were the quickest and most elegant way to travel, the Queen Mary was the first choice for the elite of high society.”

It's quite an impressive ship and the Art Deco Society party that was taking place on board, with the attendees roaming around in 1930's garb, really made the experience feel so much more authentic.
