An unusual sea day on Monday as we sailed south down the Norwegian coast. The shipping lanes are close enough to see land and with our port side cabin there was a view to add to the blue sky and calm seas ... when I wasn't in the gym, at choir or playing trivia.
Our penultimate port of call was a big disappointment. Very poor organisation on the part of Princess. The port name and all tourist information given was not the place the shuttle, which we had to pay $8US each way, took us to! The opposite direction was just a modern boring shopping centre. The other way was the advertised town, Gravdal, which was walking distance if it hadn't been raining. But the report from those that went was we didn't miss anything! The highlight if the day was coming second in the three daily trivia comps. Getting closer!
Today was very dreary outside but the 'to do list' ridiculously busy. Breakfast, trivia (which our team won!), gym, lunch, choir rehearsal, performance in the Cabaret Lounge (which was surprising well attended and a bit if fun), Captain's Circle cocktail party, formal dinner, Family Feud trivia (which our team also won!) and another entertaining performer. Cruise life can be exhausting!
Well, well - what a fantastic time you've had - very jealous. Hope your health has improved. By the way ... you could be writing for APT's brochures :-)
