Yesterday ORIANA made the first port of call of her 97 night 2012 World Cruise Circumnavigation in th Portuguese port of Leixões the port for the city of Oporto.
Being only her second call in Leixões and the first since her refit ORIANA made an elegant sight tied up alongside as shown below in these excellent photos by José Modesto.
Although some may say lacking some of her original grace due to her new "Duck tail" she still retains her authentic and beautiful lines and as ever pleasure to behold.
Leaving Oporto and cruising off the Portuguese coast yesterday evening at a speed 23.4 knots, ORIANA is currently on route to the popular Italian port of Naples where she will arrive in two days time on the 10th January.

"As with her cherished namesake and her sister the sacred CANBERRA, old acquaintance will be more than enough to ensure that whenever the great ships of Britain are brought to mind, another ORIANA shall now never be forgot."
