Sure is one beautiful ship!

[steveomaha]

yes it is but it still doesnt help me with the yellow glass under the whirl pools that run down to the life boats

[Chef Ken]

Well, I thought so too Carl. I Feel silly just staring at a picture of a ship as if she is a beautiful lady! Wait a minute, she is.

steve,
If you look at the picture sent by Chef, the glass under the whirlpool appears to have a deeper blue color. This is the same area where you see the yellow line. I wonder if it's only the reflection of the sun off the whirlpools. Just a thouhgt.

I was in one of the cabins with the "yellow" glass on the balcony. It is just a how it looks sometimes depending on how the sun hits it since they bow outward. Think of it as a one color rainbow. But from the balcony the glass is normal looking....blue tint.
