Left — Olympic Deck, walking/jogging track and row of lifeboats.
Right — Distinctive funnel with "wings," dating back to about 1960 when the ship was originally built and launched as the S.S. France. "S.S.," by the way, stands for "Steam Ship." The ship now has four boilers, two active turbines, two propellers, averages 18 knots, and burns 200 tons of fuel oil per day at that speed.

Left — Dining room waiters perform song and dance on the final night before reaching New York! This was a very impressive show to the theme "We Are The World."
Right — Piano players Wayland Pickard and Dmitri Gaivoronski, part of the excellent evening entertainment onboard the S.S. Norway.
