Just back from New Orleans, here are some pictures from aboard the AMERICAN QUEEN, showing some changes since Majestic America Line took over. Thanks to Keith Tinnin, hotel manager of the AQ, for showing us around on the boat about two weeks ago and for pointing out the changes.

The following pictures show some samples from the new color scheme, which also shows that the color of the paddlewheel isn't that bad, best to bee seen on the close-up where you see the old and the new color in the same picture.

There are two more pictures showing the color scheme in the photo album:

And you probably don't want to miss the night shot of the AQ when she was leaving New Orleans on April 6th:
