Sorry....I see what you're saying. Now that they're painted white, they just look different. I wish we could see underneath the plastic. I enlarged the picture, and I think I can just barely (maybe) see railings....
I apoligize!
But....what would it be.....waist level to a taller person...that it's still solid? I'm short, so if I'm in a chair back there, I won't be able to see the ocean. I'd have to stand, just like I do on the other ships. So technically, to me, that's a solid-wall verandah.
lol well no. because from the first picture I posted, the railings were not solid like those on the Magic and Wonder instead, they're regular lined railings with plexiglass
So I'm not sure what there now under the plastic; if they did weld on solid slabs to make it a solid whitewall verandah or not.
