Here are two picks of the biggest longest highest dearest boat in the world! Roche had just seen the Cobh exhibition about Cobh from the famine ships to nowadays, with hints about the Titanic and the Lusitania. Two days after, the Queen Mary 2 was parked in Cobh for the afternoon for a commemorative stop on the sinking of the Lusitania. So, Angie, Ab, Roche and I just rushed to Cobh to get a real impression of the ship... Impressive, really! And, as Roche puts it, imagine that, it has 5  swimming pools and 15 restaurants!    

We had a bit of an intergalactic phase in our house. Everyone wanted to be an astronaut. I found books about astronauts and how they leave in space (the picture of the space toilets even helped some little boys in their potty training!). We played the astronauts climbing on our sofa-rocket, legs up against the back and shaking our way up into the athmosphere and elephnating on the lunar ground! I  also made this little model of a rocket, which was instantly destroyed!
