The Queens will be arriving into a city that will probably still be digging out from the storm that will slam them tomorrow. No word on how the weather will, if at all, impact their visits.
One thing Is for sure; It will be a ship photographers dream there. Even if its below freezing

The Queen Mary 2 will arrive up from the Caribbean and dock at Red Hook, Brooklyn. The Queen Victoria and the Queen Elizabeth will sail up the Hudson and dock at the Passenger Ship Terminal in Manhattan. Those two will sail in from Europe, doing Cunard’s popular tandem crossing. All three will anchor off of the Stature of Liberty to enjoy a fireworks salute to the famous ships.

QV gets a celebrity’s welcome in Boston with the fireboats

The QV docks, why there are tugs there I haven’t the slightest idea. The Saga Ruby is in front and one can even make out the Skywalkers Lounge of the Caribbean Princess just beyond the ruby.
