Alesund, Norway

FINALLY A DAY OFF TOGETHER!!!!! Jackson always starts work at 8am or 9am so we slept in, getting off the ship around 11. We wandered down the harbour front. Finding a Tandoori restaurant called Tajmahal but it didn’t open until 1pm. So up the big mountain we went, 418 steps to the top. We stopped for a quick break just over halfway and met up with the deputy captain and his family. At the top I offered to take a picture of them so he returned the favour and his adorable kids photobombed us. We ran into Chris (manager) and James (ex-manager/current communications manager) when we were just about to head back down. Chris decided it would be fun to show me they walked up not took the train by chasing me trying to wipe his sweaty forehead on me.
When we made it back to the bottom we still had a bit of time before the restaurant opened so we wandered around some shops. It eventually opened and we both enjoyed our meals (butter chicken & chicken tikka masala) but Jackson wished his was a bit spicer.Läs mer
