Hi Stephen,

I thought that it was going to be moved down to Sicily (in September) - so I'll see if there's anything worthwhile taking a photo of whilst we are there; but if it is 'indiscreet' so to do then I won't bother.

Em :D

There's a very interesting thread on the Costa section of Cruise Critic. Full of pictures and translations of the work flow.

You can also see video updates on U tube.
