I'm assuming those are the air-conditioning units located behind the bridge.

All well understood Matty :-)... for my taste AURORA, and Oriana, are much 'nicely designed' cruise ships... lucky you being on board !! cheers

Hey jadran, Thanks for the comment. I was on the AURORA (an eyesore with the buggered-up jack on the bow). A nice sized ship, for me anyway. There's less walking to do as opposed to those monster shoe-boxes !!

Nice/interesting photo(s) from your cruise... on which cruise ship were you Matty ?? regards

PS: I especially like (good memories from 1967) this location: Messina (port of Messina)
