Dancing through History

After spending a day on the Queen Mary my boyfriend and I were headed on our way out. We looked to our right and saw this sweet couple dancing in the entrance to music they had playing through a phone. It was such a sweet moment that perfectly matched the ship and the day. Almost like we could be looking at a window to the past and see what a moment on the ship looked like in its prime.
