Today will be the last time the ocean liner the Queen Elizabeth 2 leaves New York (she is destined to be part of a "permanently moored hotel and entertainment complex" in Dubai). She arrived this morning with the Queen Mary 2, under the Verrazano, and they sailed by the Statue of Liberty. You can see the QE 2 and Queen Mary 2 depart their berths at 5 p.m. from a number of locations, like Battery Park, Robert Wagner, Jr Park, and Hudson River Park--here are details from Cunard. The ships will "rendezvous" near the Statue of Liberty--and there will be fireworks!

Luxury cruise line Cunard has many ships, but last night was the first time that its Queen Mary 2, Queen Elizabeth 2, and new Queen Victoria ships were in the "same port at the same time." And the port was the NewYork Harbor, under fireworks and gaze of the Statue of Liberty.
