The decorations of the magnificent buffet on board the ship. On some ships and on certain itineraries (usually on longer cruises) they try to recreate the Magnificent Buffet that was done many years ago on gala evenings. When I was on board the former Costa Firenze, we went on 14-day cruises in the Western Mediterranean and that was what we did. These were just some of the beautiful decorations that the kitchen prepared.

The large model of the former Costa Firenze. Last year I was on board the beautiful, in my opinion, Costa Firenze which unfortunately passed to Carnival in February 2024. This was the large model of the ship that was present on the main deck of the ship itself. Now have they changed the name on the model too?
