Aurora is free

[dorsetlad]

She came out of dry dock in Hamburg about an hour ago. She is now hanging about in the main channel, perhaps carrying out final tests before she heads home.

You got me excited then, I thought it was free cruises!

[dorsetlad]

She has just sailed away, out of range of the CCTV camera. She's on her way home. Can't wait to board her on Sunday.

P&O have put some pictures on their Facebook page. Have to say that the flag livery doesn't look too bad, its not as over powering as I expected.

Here is one of Aurora from Facebook (apologies for the size):

Have to say, the new paint job looks really good. I wasn't sure if it would look tacky, but this seems ok to us. :)

She looks Lubberly Jubberly in the new paint job. I shall be on her next year in Southampton and will see here when she calls into Sydney Harbour on her Worldie, early next year. Great photo of her too, thanks.

The flag on the bow is not as big as I thought it was going to be. I think it is classy.:cool:

I think that looks great. I was never a fan of the yellow, i have heard a number of times in many ports people looking at a P&O ship saying " I think its a Costa ship"!! Not any more;)

Now she might be called an NCL ship. However, I like the new look, still a beautiful ship!

She looks very smart and very beautiful and I agree, very classy.

Well done everyone for keeping us up to date and providing a photo. Getting excited already to cruise on the Aurora from Valpariso to Sydney. We hope to escape the wet and cold weather of Wales for a sunnier Feb 2015! Hope the library is still intact and well stocked for any dull days at sea.

We saw Aurora in Hamburg as she left for Southampton following her refit and then in Bruges yesterday and I have to day that the paint job looks a lot better lave than previous images have suggested that it would be.

Hi Josy, were you on Adonia?

 

Having disembarked Aurora today, the paint job looks great. She was parked opposite Adonia yesterday in Zebbrugge and again today in Southampton. She looks very smart and slightly more modern with the paint job. She most certainly not lost her traditional elegance.

It looks OK, but you can't see the name of the ship on the bow?

[molecrochip]

That is the one but they need to sort. The name is currently painted blue. Not sure what the plan is.

Nice little promo showing off what's been done during the refit.
