  • Walking tour.

    May 26 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    We walked around the city today, reliving old times, recognising that while some things remain the same, development keeps happening. The old buildings are lovely to look at and generally well taken care of.Read more

  • Copenhagen

    May 27 in Denmark ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

    Well, we are very happy with the start. An easy check in, on board so quickly. Check in at our muster station, view the safety video, then check out the bar. A couple of the barmen we've met before......a few drinks with our new Canadian friends, back to the cabin to unpack, and happy with the new style bathroom. So far, so good.Read more

  • A day in Visby

    May 29 in Sweden ⋅ ☀️ 11 °C

    Well, it's almost summer here....so the 10degrees day was a bit of a shock!
    The town is a real step back in time. So many beautiful old buildings and the ruins of old churches make the day here one where you're constantly taking photos of things that catch your eye.Read more

  • Our day in Stockholm

    May 30 in Sweden ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    We walked to a ferry, and sailed to the start of a long walk! Again, mostly cobblestone, so hard underfoot. We were very impressed with the architecture.
    There are so many museums! Some dedicated to the history of the waterways, the ships and transport previously available, right through to modern art! The Adidas marathon was on today, so that was a bonus, although some of the buses and ubers had to change route when transporting ships passengers. It didn't affect our plans, we just ambled through the day.
    I took a few photos of the flowers around the place... Many homes have pots of colour on their windowsills...

  • Gdynia

    June 4 in Poland ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    Ah, when you leave your phone on the ship, you have to rely on others for photos. Another great day looking at buildings and statues that just don't exist in our Australian world...
    And back on the ship we indulged in the Brazilian style meal. It's well don't, and another chance to indulge in eating and drinking until you can hardly move afterwards!😄Read more

  • Skagen

    June 7 in Denmark ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    What a wonderful place to visit. Different architecture again, lots and lots of walking as it's quite flat. We wandered through the town...wide streets with bicycle lanes and footpaths to keep things orderly. We looked at lighthouses, rode on a tractor bus to see the spot where the two seas meet and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Stopped at a restaurant called Jakobs, because we needed to take photos for the grandson!Read more

  • Prague

    June 9 in Czech Republic ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    Prague...amazing, picturesque city. Wonderful historical buildings, easily walkable streets, amazing statues. What a fabulous history they have. Lots of eateries focussing on many different cuisines... And so many beers!Read more
