Seriously big storm last evening.... The crew were very anxious to have dinner over and crockery packed away early..... had obviously been forewarned!
Having had a couple of sneaky drinks earlier in the evening, we were actually ready for bed by about 9.30pm; not a lot happening anywhere of course.
Tucked up, reading on my wee iPad, when all hell broke loose. Really difficult to actually stay on the bed, but did manage, and also managed to finally go to sleep, in spite of there being something clattering rather ominously against the outside wall of our cabin.
Calm this morning, but seriously rotten weather.... Very low cloud, rain, and almost zero visibility, and we're sailing down the magical Norwegian Coast. What a shame!
Everyone sitting in the lounge, almost the entire group involved in their computers or iPads, not even much conversation except to complain about the slow internet. Endless cups of bad coffee.......
We cross the Arctic Circle this morning, on the way down again, apparently there was some sort of "ceremony" on the top deck, in the freezing conditions, which involved drinking cod liver oil, and being presented with a spoon. We missed that!!!
