On part of the Queen Mary, they had an exquisite collection of the valuables from Peter the Great, in a exhibit they called "Treasures of the Last Russian Emperor". Excuse the quality of these photos; as is common in museums and galleries, flash photography was not allowed.
If I read the label right, this is called "Mother of God", an icon from Kacanskaya (Kasekstan now, to the West?). |

A wonderful golden icon given to Peter the Great by Tibet. It is breathtaking in person. |
|
The renowned Queen Mary.

|
The ticket station. |

This wonderful work shows the current location of ship and time of day and depictions of buildings and ships. Like everything on board, it is ornate, especially for its day. |

That's me near the bow. |

I visited Disneyland with some friends on March 12th, as my last stop before the drive back to Davis.
It's a Small World. |

I was too busy having fun to take many pictures. Skipping ahead to the parade at night. |

You might recognize some of these Disney characters. |
