Ralph Grizzle reports from Carnival Freedom inaugural events in Venice
Shortly after noon this past Saturday, Venetians and vacationers lined the waterfront of the Italian island city to view an American spectacle. Floating past them was the world’s newest cruise ship, the 3,700-passenger Carnival Freedom — practically screaming Americana.
Reminiscent of an American flag, the ship’s trademark red, white and blue funnel, more than 13 decks up, soared well above the Venetian skyline. Passengers in the Freedom Restaurant (on Lido Deck) peered past an ice-blue Statue of Liberty (towering two decks) on Venice’s age-old basilicas, while the ship’s signature blue “Twister” waterslide snaked against the backdrop of Saint Mark’s Square.
