We are back. Great event.

A huge tent was set up right next to the ship on an upper level. In the front area of the tent was a bar with all kinds of finger foods. Then seating with a stage for some speeches and an overview with pictures of all the updates to the ship.

The speeches were really interesting. Facts, figures and stories of how this is all done. What used to take two weeks to do is now Is now completed in 48 hours. They are totally refurbishing the ship with the same nice light woods and colors as the Silver Muse. Also removing the main dining room and going with the all speciality restaurants concept that is on the Silver Muse. They are adding 34 cabins, making the pool deck area larger, creating more restaurants and lager public spaces. It will look totally different.

The new section is adding two extra decks. As much as possible the new section has already been completed. You will see a picture of it n Kens pictures that will follow.

The ship moving apart is very slow so no way to video any action.

We then moved onto lunch and the finger foods were gone and now all kinds of pasta and seafood. Lots of visiting going on as well. A very friendly bunch of people, mostly writers only a few travel agents.

Hopefully Ken will post a few pictures today.

Our room has a terrace and we did not go out there yesterday but we can see the Silver Spirit and section being inserted from the terrace. It is really close.
