Bon voyage: Queen Mary 2 steams out of Hong Kong tonight

by Hiufu Wong

Amateur and professional photographers have been prowling Kwai Tsing container terminal for the past two days for just one reason -- to get the quintessential shot of Queen Mary 2 before she departs Hong Kong waters.

The 345-meter, 17-deck, 151,400-ton liner was the largest passenger ship in the world when she was launched nine years ago this month. 

Although no longer the record holder, Queen Mary 2 -- which can carry 2,620 passengers --  is still dearly loved by many cruise goers because of her classic and luxurious facilities. 

The liner's round-the-world voyage started from Southampton in January, and has taken in ports in Africa, Australia, Japan and China before docking in Hong Kong early yesterday.
