It is currently "cruise ship season" in Auckland - we recently had two of the largest ships in the world visiting in quick succession. The Sapphire Princess (in white), and the world's (2nd ?) largest cruise ship, the Queen Mary 2 on its maiden voyage. The latter was farewelled with a spectacular fireworks display, and caused traffic jams around the waterfront, with people wanting to view it. We had a grandstand seat in Parnell, viewing this from a rooftop garage at the end of our street. Apparently the Queen Mary 2 is three times the size of the Titanic.
