looks fun

Also, are you sure those are RCCL Liberty mino golf course or Carnivals? Looks like Carnival to me but if they did keep the mini golf course and it looks like that. Great job.

 

The bus says Liberty Dunes and has the RCI logo, so I'm pretty sure it's not Carnival. ;)

Was just looking at the webcam. Did they expand the funnel to fit the scrubbers?

[Jaredcg]

Maybe I'm wrong but it looks like St.Tropez has been expanded. Now I don't mind the added rooms so much. Also, are you sure those are RCCL Liberty mino golf course or Carnivals? Looks like Carnival to me but if they did keep the mini golf course and it looks like that. Great job.

 

 

Yes I'm sure the photos are from @NickWeirShowbiz that's his Twitter handle. He is RCCL entertainment Vice President. He's on the ship right now taking some photos. Here is some more from him of the new splash away bay.

So I looked closer at these pictures on Nick's twitter and it appears the new course is at the front of the ship...up on deck 13 above the new cabins. I just looked at the webcam pictures on this thread (pg 11) and I can just barely see the tops of the palm trees that are on the course. Good use for the deck if you ask me.

Yep, Carnival funnel in front and the tall glass. I guess they found a use for St Tropez

After you mentioned it I looked closer as well, you can see Carnivals ship tail in the distance so yeah I'd say it's front of the ship now.

I'm excited to see that the mini-golf was re-done and relocated as I thought it was disappearing completely! We sailed Liberty over XMAS and the St. Tropez deck was virtually deserted during what was a very full cruise and it just didn't look like an area that was used much at all, so mini-golf seems like a much better use of the space. I'm looking forward to seeing more about the improvements in the coming weeks, and then we'll be sailing again over Memorial Day!

Tida Wave water slide.

Great pictures of the new amenities. We just booked the ship for August and am curious if there is any news about whether the freestyle soda machines were installed? This will make a difference in whether we purchase packages for our kiddos. We want the flavored water and poweraid options!

Must have been a dry dock test run. Someone on Liberty just posted that sports deck and water slides not open until day 3.

Found this photo of one of the new Panaromic Ocean View staterooms.

check out Nicks latest tweet shows a video of the tidal wave in more detail. Confirms will open in a few days.

They did keep mini golf and looks awesome!

 

Glad to hear that!:)

[dodgersmom]

By the Twitter feed, it looks like they slides are. Not open, and may still need to go through inspection. I really hope they are up and running on the 14th.

Yes he mentioned they are inspecting now and will be ready in a few days so even that first cruisers should get to use them.

That looks so awesome. Can't wait for April to get here.

[TXCruzing]

I doubt I'll notice the look when I'm sitting on my Deck 12 balcony on Freedom in August

 

Ha! That is exactly what I was thinking. Well, almost. My Deck 12 balcony will be on the Liberty in Sept.

Which one did you get? I got the one closest to the exit doors, 1890. There might be a late night trip to St Tropez ti liberate a lounger

We have 1884. I will be curious to hear whether or not a lounger will fit on the balcony. It is hard to tell from photos. That would be nice though!

We'll make it fit

I was really hoping that they'd replace the chairs on the balconies with the reclining chairs that they placed at some point on the Navigator while it was in Galveston. The reclining chairs were a great compromise between the straight-backed chairs and a full lounger, but from what I could see on the webcam today, the Liberty still had the same non-reclining chairs as they had in Dec.
