Friday June 17
We always like it when there is a sea day on the first day of a cruise. This gives you a chance to sleep in, explore the ship and its facilities, meet other passengers and attend special lectures. Today we chatted with 2 couples we hadn't met before and attended 2 lectures.
The first one was by a Norwegian guy who had been in charge of the National Maritime Museum in Oslo, and he spoke about the history of the first 4 ports we will be visiting. He was very good and has really whet our appetite for these ports. The second one this afternoon was by an ex US Navy guy on Communication at Sea, and again we found it really informative and interesting.
Today was sunny with no wind and calm seas, so we sat around the pool for a while and enjoyed the warmth of the sun - this is what cruising is all about!
