Someone posted this 18-second movie on one of the boards. It was taken
from from the Golden Lion Pub on Deck 2 on its recent North Atlantic
crossing.

we had same experience last March on QM2, but waves were not quite that
high, although ship was at 29 knots, smooth as silk; a true ocean liner.

Credit goes to Colin Cameron who posted this on cruisepage.com in the
cruisetalk session.

He seems to be a true Cunard expert

This clip might turn into a classic soon ;-)

Can someone help me? My Windows Media Player pops up...I can hear this but
can't see it. I've looked all over the place to find the video...what am I
doing wrong?

You could try File-Save As, to save a local copy of the WMV file,
and then launch it with windows explorer.

You might also want to try upgrading your windows media player.

Help-Check for player Updates

thanks Lee, I'll try that. In fact, right after I posted, I did upgrade the
media player but it still didn't work.

Thanks Candy (and Colin Cameron the orginator) for that posting.
Those were awesome seas...!

I have definitely downloaded that WMA/V file to my "confuser" in
case the referenced link finally disappears into cyber space.

Tnx again...
