Fifty four years ago on this date, Mal was sailing across the Atlantic on board the RMS Queen Mary from New York to Southampton, England. It was the ship’s second to last voyage. A month later, on October 31, 1967, she would depart on her final voyage, arriving in Long Beach on December 9, 1967, where she has remained ever since. She is now a floating hotel.
