I'll take your word on the flags and even though I've never been to Sydney, Australia I'm pretty sure that's the Opera House in the background. What I am sure about is the bridge shown in the Celebrity advertisement is definitely not in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia... Sydney or Seal Island.

jbcallender Posted June 15, 2023 #125 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I see national TV shows with horrid spelling and grammatical errors. It's amazing. When I see those errors, it makes me question the content! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
