Fiona Tuffet on H.M.Y. Britannia

Fiona recently explored H.M.Y. (Her Majesty's Yacht) Britannia. The queen traveled all over the world on this, and it did a lot of traveling over the decades it spent in service. It was recently retired and permanently moored in Edinburgh. It really is a floating palace!



Recognize that bridge? The Britannia cruised under the Mighty Mac on July 5, 1959.


This wombat was a great favorite of the sailors. They used him to invent the game of "wombat tennis", which involved the ceiling fan.

Here's Fiona in the drawing room.
