From the Sports Ground of Imperial College,
Mardi Gras / Star of Texas / Lucky Star / Apollo
The Empress of Canada was the last passenger liner built for Canadian
Pacific Steamships Ltd, and certainly was the most attractive ship in
the fleet. Her interiors are not only delightfully spacious, but had
that understated British charm. Her cabins are large compared to the
modern cruise ship, and still features some fine timber features. When
purchased by Carnival, she received a comprehensive refit, giving her a
bright new feel. As the Mardi Gras, she became one of the most popular
cruise ships in the American cruise market, so much so, that Mardi Gras
was the success story that made Carnival what it is today, the largest
cruise company in the world.
Interiors shown on this page are those of the Mardi Gras, which remains
mostly unchanged as the Apollo and Apollon.
