Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, (R) is shown around the deck of the ship 'Queen Elizabeth 2' by Commodore John Burton-Hall (C) and current ships' Captain Ian McNaught, (L) during a visit to the ship in Southampton in southern England, on November 11, 2008. One of the world's most famous cruise ships, the Queen Elizabeth 2, briefly ran aground Tuesday before arriving in its home port for the last time, its owners said. The 70,000-ton vessel ran onto a sandbank as it approached Southampton on England's south coast, where it was paying its final call before heading to Dubai where it will become a floating hotel.
