MISTRAL

pennant GER 73, with Queen Galadriel, pennant TS K431 in the background. Oddly enough, both vessels were built in 1937 on different continents. Mistral being built in the good ol' USA as a rich mans' toy and now flagged in Germany, whilst QG in Denmark as a Baltic trader and is now UK flagged.
