Well it was very cool to go see the ship. I have been advised to not post pics so I will just do this one low res photo.
The ship is being built in multiple sections called blocks. In the same building is a full Celebrity ship that floats out in February. Some of the Hull sections will have temprary plates put on the ends and then floated to their final destination for final assembly. Some blocks will be lifted into place once the Celebrity moves out. There are massive cranes that straddle the whole building allowing them to pickup the sections.
We found the server room and saw the AC cold water pipes and electrical connections. Crew cabins are pre-built units and we saw a few of them. Actually all cabins are built off-site and brought to the yard and then put in place. Each cabin has its own self contained fans, wiring and plumbing just waiting to be hooked up to the mains supplies.
More too come,
Please excuse brevity and typos as this message was composed on my mobile device.
