They are working on the Liberty

Been watching the web cam for a bit this afternoon. They are still in Miami, but working on Lido deck already. Looks like they are tearing down the big screen and other work. Kinda neat.

Cool... maybe they will just leave that big screen down... :D

Sorry... I am one that does not like it... Just got off of the Destiny... nothing beats getting up early in the morning walking on deck with my first cup of coffee and hearing... Good Morning America! NOT... I wish it was like it used to be... just the ocean breezes and some good caribbean music... now that is a cruise...

Ditto!

 

We spent all our time on the Liberty at the Serenity area to avoid the large screen tv. Been on the Liberty twice and hate the tv. But then we have friends that will only book a cruise if it has a large cruise tv. So I guess to each their own. Glad we were able to get away from it.

We are on the same cruise! Thanks for the link OP!

 

From John Heald's FB page:

 

So here I am onboard one of my favorite ships, Carnival Liberty. I will get to what's happening in a moment, but I can tell you this, the crew are so excited about their ship getting all these new features. There are 527 non Carnival employees who will be building and designing plus there are 1150 Carnival crew and 170 beards from the head office all of whom are here to make your Carnival Liberty proud to be the first with the sparkling Funship 2.0 upgrades

 

and earlier:

 

I am heading now from the hotel to the Carnival Liberty which will sail tonight at 10:00pm heading for dry dock in Freeport, Bahammas

It would be nice if the 2.0 changes included more powerful and more frequently updated webcams. It's really dumb for Carnival not to provide big showy images to entice potential cruisers. Of course they're still learning how to build an ECommerce website, and how to properly install WiFi with modern satellite feeds on the ships, so I may be hoping for too much...!

Looks like she's still in Miami. I thought they were sailing away to Freeport at 10pm?

 

due to weather, they wont be docked in freeport until 7am tomorrow morning. Once she dock in freeport, it will take about 4 hours for the drydock to lift the ship out of the water

I just got off of the liberty today... hopefully they overhaul the staff as well

 

When a ship is in dry dock the staff who are not on the payroll, won't get any salary for the duration of the dry dock, b/c there are no guests onboard and so no tipping.
