Athena - a ship with a history

The cruise liner ATHENA approaching the Hatston terminal 13-05-2011 looking good for a 60+ year old ship In her early days she was in collision with the Italian liner ANDREA DORIA back in 1956,I think it was about the eighties she was re engined and the superstructure rebuilt, due back here about the 25th July.
