The Royal Yacht Britannia part 2
















The Engine room.














The Royal Launch..a beautiful boat.














This was the Queen's favourite room (the Sun Lounge). There are deck chairs and of course the bar.














The Royal Bedroom (note the single bed). This room is joined to the Duke of Edinburgh's room by a door and that room is pretty much a copy of this one but with more manly decor.















The grandest room on the ship: the State Dining room. Many powerful dignataries were entertained here. It is the largest room on the ship and the cuttlery had to be set perfectly so much so that they used rulers to make sure the place settings were even! On the walls of this room are gifts from around the world including a Maori club from NZ.














Had to make do with Fosters! The Queen doesnt drink Tui!
