10 Favorite Liners

Ah, dreaming on a summer afternoon...
1. Empress of Britain, especially when Noel Coward was on board. Dahlings, I'm told they had a mahvellous party.
2. Normandie. Just for over-the-top sophistication
3. Rex
4. Ile de France
5. France 1 for rococo splendour
6. Leonardo da Vinci
7. Empress of Japan. Either 1 or 2 - both great ships
8. Nieuw Amsterdam. My Dad came home on her in '45
9. Olympic. Very comfortable, a good sea boat, and arrived in one piece.
10. LZ129 Hindenburg. OK, it's a cheat, but it's my dream after all.
