We were at the pre cruise dinner tonight, here in Barcelona, with 40 of our cruisemates and we are all soooo eager to board. I wanted to walk down to the port tonight to see the Marina but DH said it was waaay too cold so your posting was perfect. Thanks once again!

CintiPam Posted January 28, 2011 #17 Share Posted January 28, 2011 ...But I put a picture in my post of a ship that WAS dressed overall.:confused: Yes, but I saw all the lights strung across the top on the video, and did not distinguish them from the flags in the picture on your post. Now I know, courtesy of Oceans&Rivers, that it is the flags that mean dressed. OK, just call me landlubber!:) Dare I inquire what each particular flag pattern means?
