Sunday 3rd June 2012







Thames 1952 Diamond Jubilee 2012 Pageant.
**************************************
Cold, windy, drizzle (heavy rain late afternoon) miserable day, but did not dampen the spirit of the occasion.
It was a mind blowing once in a lifetime experiance and so grateful was given the chance to be part of the Flotilla. As have explained before we celebrated our Ruby Wedding Anniversary on the Spirit Of Chartwell in May 2011.
The day started when we arrived at the O2 at 9am for security checks before boarding the Clipper Meteor at 12.00.
Sailed to Battersea Power Station to moor waiting for the Queen to pass before we found our place in the Flotilla. We followed to Tower Bridge where we then gave a toast to the Queen on the Spirit of Chartwell before we sailed back to the O2 ready for the trip back to the Hotel arriving for evening dinner at 8.30pm.
A memorable day.
These are just a few of the 276 pictures I captured.
