Showing Its Stripes

Carnival Venezia emerged from dry dock today with its new "Carnival" livery. It will retain its yellow Costa funnel with the Costa "C" and have a matching yellow strip on the hull in place of the red one in the normal Carnival livery as “a nod to the ship's Costa Cruises roots.”
