Queen Mary 2 at Malaga, Spain 6 September 2004

12th September 2004

Queen Mary 2 spent most of August moored at Piraeus, Greece to provide high-quality, high-security accommodation for VIPs attending the Olympic Games in Athens. On her return cruise through the Mediterranean, she called at the Spanish port of Malaga in Andalucia. My permission to enter the port came too late, so these pictures are taken from more distant vantage points around the city. Click on the title bar above to see thumbnails of each picture.
