Liners are the huge ships to carry the passengers through rough seas to their destination. They were used to move wealthy immigrants between New York and Europe through North Atlantic oceans.
Most of the grand old liners are left in memories only. They were highly superb in their service, luxuriousness, status, facilities and in length too. They had won the prize for the fastest Atlantic crossing.
Note that Atlantic Liner is different from a cruise ship which is made for quiet sea and entertainment whereas, liners are made to deal with jagged north Atlantic climate and to carry passengers.
1. RMS Queen Elizabeth II
Launching Year: 1969
QE2 was launched at the ending age of the Atlantic liners and remained the only luxury ship till 2004 (aside from the Norway). It moved through Atlantic & many other ports in Sydney, Australia and other places. Its life came to an end in 2008 and now it will be a hovering hotel in Dubai.

It happens sometimes that you are supposed to stay in a place for only two days. To visit an island like Singapore in a time span of 2 days is nothing. People who come here fall in love with this place and would love to stay there for their life. Let us suppose that you are unlucky that you have got only two days to enjoy this place. Hence it is recommended to go according to this plan.
Day 1 Plan
Let us assume that you have reached the Changi Airport in the morning of day 1. Just go and get out of the immigration procedure with a brochure about Singapore in your hand. It depends on the money in your pocket to which kind of hotel you might want to spend your nights. If you can afford an expensive hotel then you can go for the Changi Airport hotel else you might find Hotel 81 in Chinatown. After coming out of the airport you should sit in the SIA Hop-on bus. Don’t worry about the money, its free. It will take you away from the airport to the Orchard Road then to Bugis Junction, Suntec City, the Colonial District, Clarke Quay, Boat Quay, Chinatown and finally to the Singapore Botanic Gardens.

1. Plitvice Lakes National Park of Croatia
With a placid and sprinkling waterfalls, this park was once a battle field in Croatian Independence war. You can find trails that are made up of wooden boards and are made over water. It takes approximately 5 hours to walk on these wooden pathways. In the lower lake section you can see caves that are made up in lime stone and water falling from about 230 feet.

There is an amusing difference between the experience being underwater and that of being on land. Objects appear twenty five percent larger underwater and as a consequence they also appear closer. Colors alter as light is absorbed and reflect different rates. Depth of the water affect this further. The light source in water is from the surface, this produces kaleidoscopic effects governed by water movement, currents and turbulence. There is an underwater sculpture collection that is undoubtedly a superlative monument of the world. This art work is known as Underwater Sculpture Park that is located in Grenada, West Indies. It’s a work of sculptor Jason Taylor from England, who has a passion for creating fantastic and unique pieces of work depicting Grenada’s colorful history and folklore and and this all is underwater.
Jason de Caires Taylor was born in 1974 to an English father and Guyanese mother, spending the earlier part of his life growing up in Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. Educated in South East England, he graduated in 1998 from Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Art London, with a B.A Honors in Sculpture and Ceramics. He is also a fully qualified diving instructor and underwater naturalist with over 14 years of diving experience in a variety of countries.
