John Heald, Senior Cruise Director for Carnival Cruise Lines has been blogging from Carnival Freedom since last March, mostly sharing his daily life and the quirky situations he encounters at sea. This week he was in Venice and previewed Cunard Line’s new Queen Victoria, currently under construction at the shipyard there and scheduled to enter service in December. It's an enteresting blog entry and the photos of the unfinished interiors are intriguing. Heald's commentary gives them life.
About the Queen Victoria, Heald blogs: "First impressions are for me and many others so very important and the first impression of seeing the Queen Victoria was…well, let’s just say this. There is no need for her to have the word Cunard on her bow or anywhere else. You don't need to be in the business we are in to know that this is a Cunard ship…you just know... some sixth sense tells you that those lines, those colours (and, yes, we are spelling that the British way) means it can only be a Cunard ship."
