The new blue funnel

Images depicting ORIANA's buff funnel being painted blue by the ship's crew, while berthed in the port of Basseterre (St. Kitts, Caribbean) on 28 December 2014, taken by Bob Bowler, a passenger of her previous Christmas and New Year's cruise.

Bob managed to photograph ORIANA in the early stage of her transformation last year, which saw her return back home, in the beggining of 2015, as a different ship.
