    Day 18

    13. juni, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    Last night I had a very good sleep, as I was clearly recovering from the previous day! The day was definitely a challenge - I didn’t end up having any time to buy food before, so this morning I woke up very hungry and slightly dehydrated. As the supermarkets don’t open until 8:30am, I went down to buy some cereal, bread, juice, water and almond milk. What a huge relief to be better organised than before!

    Heddi and Pentti had plans to go to Gibralfaro Castle, so I headed out to their apartment to meet up with them. Fortunately most sights in Malaga are close and very easy to reach, however all the lanes and alleyways are so confusing! The walk up to the castle wasn’t very easy - most of it was straight uphill, and the weather wasn’t exactly cool! We did have a nice sea breeze thankfully. The views from the top were wonderful too.

    Similar to the cathedral yesterday, the castle provided an audio tour you could add to your mobile phone, however after a while we lost interest and did our own thing. After coming back down to ground level, we were all feeling hungry so we went to a cafe named Cister Catorce which was located right there in the square and advertised €2 tapas. Big mistake! After sitting down, we ordered only drinks but the service was so unbelievably rude, I thought I’d do a quick check of the reviews on Google. I’m glad I did - there was absolutely nothing good written about the place, and the average rating was 1.1/5. We then quickly decided to go elsewhere which was a smart move - even the four drinks we ordered were an absolute rip-off.

    We relied on Google again for advice, and found Cafetería Framil, which was a welcome delight after the last place. I had the lunch meal special which included cold tomato soup (may have been gazpacho), vegetarian bocadillo and crème caramel for dessert. Great choice! By this time, we were all feeling a bit tired, so we returned to our respective apartments to rest.

    When I arrived back at the apartment I was thrilled to see that the washing machine was now fixed, so I washed some clothes before having a nap. Heddi suggested going for a walk down to the beach and waterfront area, where Pentti and Freja had gone earlier so that Freja could swim at the beach. It was a very affluent area, with yachts and expensive boats docked there, as well as exorbitant prices at the restaurants and bars. Clearly you were paying for the location!

    For dinner, Heddi and I went back into the city centre to eat at Andino Gastrobar, a Latin American restaurant which was very popular and had a wonderful atmosphere. It seemed a bit unusual having South American food in Spain but the menu was good so we didn’t mind. I had the empanadas but could’ve eaten a lot more.

    Since we have a full day at Alhambra tomorrow, we stopped and bought some snacks at a small supermarket as were really not sure what the food arrangements will be. I definitely don’t want to spend another day with a rumbling stomach!

    Day 17

    12. juni, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    Today was our earliest start so far, so when the alarm went off at 3:30am, we didn’t exactly jump out of bed with excitement! Fortunately we were well prepared last night, so we only needed to get dressed, brush our teeth, grab our bags and walk slightly down the street to wait for our pre-booked Uber driver.

    Ted had been concerned about the number of seats available on his KLM flight back to Amsterdam but he didn’t need to worry because he got a ticket without any trouble. He did however need to check a bag in, but he will still have time in Amsterdam to collect it before his next flight.

    We had breakfast together at Le Pain Quotidien in the airport before we sadly had to separate before continuing on our individual itineraries. As Ted didn’t have as much holiday leave as myself, he is heading to Bali to meet our friend Josh before returning home, whilst I am going to Málaga to see my longtime pen pal Heddi and her family, followed by family and friends in Berlin. Fortunately there is wifi on Singapore Airlines, so I was able to communicate with him throughout his journey.

    I stayed behind in the cafe to continue typing this blog and, by the time Ted landed in Amsterdam, it was only just time for me to check into my RyanAir flight. Fortunately the process was very quick, as RyanAir seems to have gotten some things right! The security process at Brussels airport was very thorough, which I assume could be a result of the terrorist attack a few years ago. Since my flight wasn’t until after 9, I bought myself a water and chocolate croissant before waiting in the boarding lounge until it was time to board our flight.

    Unsurprisingly, the flight was very mediocre, and slightly worse than I’d anticipated. This was mainly due to there being no vegetarian option available, meaning I could only have a bottle of water and Pringles for the 3.5 hour flight. I was hoping for a crewfie with the RyanAir crew to add to my collection but unfortunately, they weren’t particularly friendly or outgoing.

    When we arrived in Malaga, we were greeted with warm weather and fortunately, the quick arrival of my bag. It was a long walk to the airport train station and I wondered what the long queue was for. It turned out it was for the train ticket machine, so I joined the line. After nearly taking the wrong platform, I was finally on my way to the accommodation.

    The 12 minute walk from the nearest station to my apartment wasn’t all that fun due to the weight of my bag and even though the weather wasn’t that warm, I was a sweaty mess by the time I arrived! The check in process was odd - I never actually met anyone, I just had to send a copy of my passport to the owner via WhatsApp to verify my identity, then they sent me the code for the front door including instructions on how to retrieve the room key from the lockbox.

    The apartment is absolutely beautiful and very well equipped, so I definitely made the right choice with this place. After having a shower, I discovered that a moisturiser had leaked in my suitcase, so I used the washing machine to wash some clothes before heading out to meet Heddi, Penntti and Freja at their apartment.

    It was so great seeing Heddi again! I haven’t seen her since I was living in Valencia doing my language exchange in 2017. She took me up to their apartment where I met up with Penntti and Freja. I gave them my presents from Australia (koala socks and a notepad) which I bought from a koala hospital in Port Macquarie, and they gave me a cartoon book about Finnish people.

    Since I had barely eaten since this morning, I was extremely grateful they had set out a lunch in their apartment of cheese, bread and fruits. After lunch, we went to look at Málaga Cathedral which included an audio walking tour. By the end of the tour, I was really struggling to stay awake after our 3:30am start to the day, so I went back to the apartment for a quick nap before we went out for dinner that night.

    When I returned to the apartment, I was shocked to see that the handle on the washing machine door had broken…and I couldn’t retrieve my clothes!! I sent a quick message to the owner of the apartment about my dilemma before going out for dinner. Penntti had been recommended a tapas restaurant where we had a very good meal, which included salmon, mushroom and vegetarian options. I paid for dinner as Heddi had paid for my ticket to the Alhambra on Friday.

    Heddi and Penntti offered to come back to my apartment to help open the washing machine but upon my return, saw that it was now open! I think the owner may have come into the apartment to try and fix it. I was just so grateful to be able to retrieve my clothes! The owner also advised they’d send a handyman over tomorrow.

    We will be having an easier day tomorrow as I will probably still be a bit tired, but it’s cool being here for the first time in Málaga!

    Day 16

    11. juni, Belgien ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    We didn’t sleep in today, as we were probably self conscious of oversleeping and missing our departure from the ship! There was certainly nothing to be concerned about though as most of our luggage had been collected for us last night, meaning we only had to go to breakfast and collect our last few items before leaving the ship.

    Our departure time was listed as 8am, but as we were already ready, we disembarked early to see if we could collect our bag and leave. As it turned out we could, and it was just as easy as our boarding process. Since Amsterdam was quite rainy, we decided to take a taxi to Centraal Station, as there didn’t seem to be an Uber pickup area available.

    Our very talkative driver checked our train departure for us, advising of our platform to disembark from. When we arrived at Centraal, we were unpleasantly surprised when the driver informed us he only took cash, meaning we needed to scramble and find an ATM in the train station. Fortunately, Ted found a Travelex ATM, where I was able to withdraw some Euro.

    As it seemed like we’d just missed a train, we bought some mediocre coffee before taking the elevator to our platform. When a train pulled into the station indicating Brussels, Ted wondered if the train would go to Brussels Central too. As it turned out, it was the earlier train we thought we’d missed, which was half an hour late. Since we had bought an IC train ticket, we were able to catch this train straightaway, rather than waiting another 2 hours for our original train.

    The train was a basic 2nd class but we didn’t mind, since there was plenty of room and it was comfortable enough. The journey had about nine stops before reaching Brussels Central. It wasn’t until we reached Breda that our tickets were checked, as this was where the international travel started.

    On the way I managed to get a very distant photo of the Atomium, which wasn’t made easy as the view was either blocked by a tree, a building or another train. Our arrival into Brussels was easier than our Amsterdam arrival too, as the station was less frantic. Our accommodation is only a four minute walk from the station too. All I can say about Brussels is….wow!

    Before we even reached our accomodation, we were both gobsmacked by the quaintness and beauty of the area. It was like a combination of Amsterdam, Paris and St. Petersburg all in one. Everywhere you looked there was a sweet delight of decadence, whether it was chocolate, pasties, waffles or macaroons, as well as high end shops and fancy hotels. Our accommodation also did not disappoint - it was located in the Royal Saint-Hubert Galleries, which is an ensemble of three glazed shopping arcades, comprising of cafes and fancy shops.

    The only problem we had was checking in. As we had arrived early, there was no one to speak to but fortunately a man from the business next door called one of the reception staff for us. Our room was already ready, so we were able to leave our bags to go exploring. The room was also large and impressive - it seemed to consist of African artefacts and artwork for decorations.

    Since we were hungry we settled on going to Burger King for lunch, which isn’t ideal, but was a decent and cheap enough option for us. We looked through a few of the shops where we bought some items from a “Tin Tin” store, before starting our own walking tour I had created before leaving Australia.

    Our first stop was the enormous Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula, located within easy walking distance from our accommodation. We then proceeded to the impressive Mont des Arts, which is an historic site, including the Royal Library of Belgium, the National Archives of Belgium, and a beautifully manicured public garden. It also provided a great view from above, where we could see the Brussels Town Hall in the distance.

    Even though there were a lot of renovations and roadworks happening, it wasn’t difficult reaching the nearby Royal Palace which was really impressive, and didn’t have the crazy amount of crowds of Buckingham Palace. There was a huge park across the road from the palace so, after buying an ice cream, it was a beautiful place to wander and enjoy the serenity.

    After walking past the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, we took photos of the Église Notre-Dame des Victoires au Sablon, but were more impressed by the stunning Square du Petit Sablon across the road, which was a flower garden designed in a Flemish Neo-Renaissance style, surrounded by 48 bronze statues depicting medieval professions, such as stone-cutters, tallow makers and linen croppers.

    No trip to Brussels would be complete without seeing Manneken Pis (the replica anyway), so we headed there next, as well as (seemingly) every other tourist in Brussels. The number of tourist shops surrounding the underwhelming statue was huge yet, as tempting as it was to buy something chintzy, we decided to pass.

    The best was yet to come though as we reached The Grand-Place/Grote Markt which is, without doubt, one of the most beautiful town squares we have seen. It was surrounded by the Town Hall, King’s House, and the Houses of the Grand-Place. The square had so much colour and vibrancy, it was like an overload on the senses.

    After our sightseeing, we headed back to the apartment to relax. It is interesting but we had originally regretted booking a side trip to Brussels, solely because Ted’s flight from here to Singapore was changed, meaning he now has to go back to Amsterdam tomorrow to make the flight. We came anyway as we had already paid for the train tickets and accommodation, and we are so glad we did now.

    We thought we would go our for a drink but the closest gay venue - whilst very cheap for drinks - was full of men over 65! For an early dinner we went to Chez Charles Brasserie, which we both enjoyed because the portions of food were huge. Ted had been keen on trying some Belgian meatballs which he had, while I settled for pasta.

    We thought we would try a different venue for a drink, so we went to a local gay street where we had a beer and met a couple of an Australian and a Belgian. In the meantime, it started to pour rain so we needed to go back to our apartment afterwards to get everything ready for our departure tomorrow. As Ted’s flight to Amsterdam is at 6am tomorrow, we will need to wake at 3:30am to take an Uber to the airport. Yikes!

    Brussels has been a wonderful experience - not one we were expecting but also one that exceeded our expectations.

    10. juni, North Sea ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    Today was a much needed ship day, as we used this opportunity to pack up our bags in preparation for our departure tomorrow. We didn’t sleep as late as we would’ve liked after last night, but it was a relaxing day nonetheless. We couldn’t exactly exhaust ourselves today by merely eating and laying in the Solarium!

    Packing our bags was a lot quicker this time than when we left Australia, and since we didn’t have any wifi coverage, most of the day was spent socialising with our onboard friends. We had our final dinner with the Reno boys before catching up with Blaine, Suzanne and Charlie for a tea before bed. It was quite sad as we all went our separate ways, but that’s what happens when a cruise finishes.

    One awesome thing that occurred was when a helicopter came right up next to the cruise ship before heading to one of the nearby oil rigs. We could literally wave to them from our balcony.

    Tomorrow we will catch our train to Brussels before Ted and I sadly have to head off in different directions before reuniting back home.

    9. juni, Norge ⋅ 🌬 13 °C

    We managed to sleep well again last night but since we didn’t have any concrete plans for Kristiansand, we took our time getting off the ship. As the weather was a bit overcast and it was a Sunday, there wasn’t a great rush, so we enjoyed some time in the Solarium before disembarking. It was very fortuitous that we took both jumpers and a wind-cheater with us, as the weather became cold and windy. It’s somewhat strange how all the cooler weather we’ve encountered has been in the south, whilst the north was actually warmer.

    Just like most of the Norwegian towns we’ve seen, Kristiansand didn’t disappoint. This was another time where most of the sights were within walking distance from the cruise port. After walking through the colourful Fiskebrygga (fish market) along the waterfront, we went towards the Markens Gate shopping district, where we waited until 11am to enjoy a coffee at a local cafe.

    Next, we walked over to the Kristiansand Cathedral where a Sunday service was just starting. The old town of Posbyen was very similar to the old town of Stavanger, but it was still quaint and worth walking through. The waterfront of Nupenparkern was one of our favourite areas, which was a beautiful large park with a distinct fountain and a lot of greenery.

    We returned to the cruise ship for lunch and, even though we’d considered returning to town for another walk around, we felt pretty satisfied with what we had seen. Our afternoon was instead spent relaxing until we met up with the Reno boys for dinner. One thing we noticed today is how Ted’s cough has now almost disappeared since having that alcoholic bitters yesterday!

    Since tonight was formal night, we dressed up in our Sunday best and joined Wee and Keith for a 70’s theme night in the Centrum. Some of the other boys and Suzanne joined us so we went to the Schooner Bar for more drinks before heading to the bar on the 13th floor for dancing. Lo and behold, the guys from Brisbane were similarly there so our small group continued to grow. I stayed out until 1:30am, whilst Ted continued for about another hour. Tomorrow we have another ship day, which will be our opportunity to pack up everything before our arrival back in Amsterdam.

    8. juni, Norge ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    Unfortunately neither Ted nor I were blessed with a good night’s sleep, as Ted was sick during most of the night with coughing and a sore throat. We still managed to drag ourselves to breakfast though as we weren’t going to let a lack of sleep hold us back from a day of sightseeing! We had a cruise of Lysefjord which went out towards Pulpit Rock booked for 10am, so we had a quick wander around the waterfront before boarding our cruise.

    Pulpit Rock was something I’ve wanted to see for a long time and would have preferred to see it from above but since the weather was plain and you required hiking shoes, the cruise seemed like a good alternative. Pulpit Rock was in the news this week too, as a tourist sadly fell to his death whilst sightseeing the rock.

    As it turned out, the cruise itself was not that interesting. It wasn’t the fault of the cruise line, as the boat itself was very nice and well equipped. It was just that, after all the fjords we’ve already seen prior to today, the Lysefjord didn’t offer anything new. And similarly, the view of Pulpit Rock from far below was very underwhelming! It wasn’t a total loss though - the sight of the beautiful houses along the water with a massive fjord as their daily view were impressive to see.

    After returning to Stavanger, we went back to the cruise ship for lunch before heading out again. As we still hadn’t seen much of the town yet, we went straight towards Gamle Stavanger, which is the old town with its white wooden buildings. From there we went to the stunning Fargegaten, a street with colourful houses, bars and restaurants. We then headed over to the Cathedral which wasn’t really photo-worthy, as it was covered in scaffolding for some renovations, so we explored the nearby park instead.

    We went back to Fargegaten again since, like the Viking Bar from yesterday, the place seemed like a wonderful location to have a drink. I had a red wine whilst Ted had an Underberg Bitters, which the waitress recommended for his cough. Ted ended up really liking it, so here’s hoping it has some good medicinal benefits.

    As we headed back to the boat, it started to rain heavily, so we were grateful to have done our sightseeing earlier. We had dinner with the boys from Reno before returning to our stateroom. I had a really bad headache, no doubt from lack of sleep, so I was more than happy to have an early night.

    The cruising this evening was somewhat interesting, as there was a storm nearby in the North Sea. Whilst the view of rising waves and winds was somewhat interesting, they were also a bit unsettling! Tomorrow we will visit Kristiansand - we don’t have any concrete plans for there so it should be a relaxing day.

    Day 12

    7. juni, Norge ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C

    This morning when we opened our curtains, we were greeted with the beautiful sight of the Norwegian fjords on our approach to Flåm. We continued to enjoy this view at breakfast as we sailed into port. We didn’t know what to expect with Flåm but we were surprised to see how small it is, compared to previous towns like Ålesund and Geiranger. As it turned out, that was a real blessing, as it really felt like we were among nature with fresher air and beautiful scenery.

    Ted and I were among the first passengers to disembark as we were eager to see the town. Weather wise, this has been the coolest port so far (about 2 degrees) but truthfully we don’t feel cold at all, which we assume is because there is no wind or humidity. Flåm is a very beautiful place, which we enjoyed just walking about and appreciating the peace and quiet. Originally we thought it would be too low key but we ended up loving it.

    Since our tour to Stegastein Lookout wasn’t until 10am, we considered hiring a mini electric vehicle like we’d seen in Geiranger but the price was way too exorbitant. While waiting for our tour, we met two guys from Brisbane whom we hadn’t met earlier so it was good to see some fellow Aussies. Our driver was so obnoxious! Not only did he talk down to the passengers, but he was aggressive on the road with other drivers.

    Fortunately the viewpoint was worth it, and we were also given reasonably good weather. The drive up took us past the beautiful village of Aurlandsvangen before driving for 20 minutes up a very winding road. Not only were the oncoming drivers a hazard, but so were the many mountain goats that would wander onto the road.

    Thankfully we had pretty decent weather at the viewpoint, which provided an amazing vista 650 metres above Aurlandsfjord. Once again, we took plenty of photos which we will have to cull later! After another hair-raising drive back to Flåm, we headed back to the cruise ship for lunch. One of the waitresses whom we’ve befriended recommended a Viking Bar in Flåm so we thought it seemed like a good excuse to go exploring again.

    The place in question was the Ægir Bryggeri (brewery), which was fully decked out in Viking lore, including a carving of a Norse god’s face in a tree trunk (which may have represented Yggdrasil, the central sacred tree). It seemed like a great place to enjoy the atmosphere, so I ordered an ale, and were joined shortly after by Blaine and Suzanne.

    After returning to the boat, we enjoyed our dinner with some of our American friends as we were treated to beautiful fjord scenery whilst departing. Ted was feeling under the weather again, so he went to bed early whilst I stayed for a few drinks in the Schooner Bar. Tomorrow we visit a new destination, Stavanger!

    6. juni, Norge ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    After a pretty good sleep (jet lag begone!) we went for breakfast before arriving at Ålesund around 11am. Once again, the cruise ship top deck was a great viewpoint of the city upon arrival, so we took several pics of the beautiful city which already looks more impressive than Honningsvåg!

    Since we have just found out that guests are not allowed to take food off the ship (whoops!), we waited in the Solarium until disembarkation, and filled ourselves up on croissants so we wouldn’t be hungry later. We were greeted with beautiful weather, as well as troll footprints painted on the footpath, making sure that finding the centre of town would be easy.

    As soon as we saw the waterfront, we knew we would like Ålesund. We weren’t sure where to head to next, so we just wandered around before inadvertently encountering a walking tour, and following them to a nearby viewpoint at Storhaugen Park. From there we wandered down to Ålesund church, before making our way to the Aksla Viewpoint, which was definitely the highlight of our visit.

    Before reaching the viewpoint, you first walk through beautiful Byparken park before climbing the 418 steps to the top. The climb was not particularly difficult, however it also guaranteed a good workout. We ran into Keith and Wee in the park, as well as seeing the Reno boys on the climb up. I think Ted and I took about a million photos. We did want to get a good selfie from a viewpoint but a group of Americans with a selfie stick didn’t seem willing to give it up.

    We went back down to the waterfront but sadly our beautiful weather turned cold, as the wind and cold blew in. After picking up some food from the supermarket, we returned to the cruise ship for lunch. Our afternoon ended up being low key as Ted has been feeling unwell, which isn’t that surprising considering how many people we have seen coughing and sneezing in the Windjammer restaurant.

    Both Charlie and Blaine contacted us about dinner plans, but since Ted wasn’t feeling well, we settled on a quiet night in. Tomorrow we have our next destination of Flåm in western Norway!

    Going to bed early wasn’t such a bad idea, since Ted and I both had a better sleep than usual. For a change, I thought I would try the dining room for breakfast instead of the chaos of the buffet restaurant, whilst Ted still preferred the latter. Whilst I enjoyed the quieter atmosphere and the portions of food, the service was really quite slow and lacking, with incorrect and forgotten orders. I did give it some allowance though as I’ve since heard that a lot of the waitstaff have fallen ill.

    Ted and I were keen for a quieter day so we spent most of the morning relaxing in the solarium, and fortunately we arrived early enough to avoid the insane grab for a deck chair. The day didn’t remain quiet for long though as several friends arrived to join us. We of course didn’t mind, although it’s getting harder and harder for me to finish my book!

    Morning trivia was on but since I didn’t want to relinquish my deck chair, I messaged some of the answers to Wee who was there. By the afternoon though, we went to “Guess that Tune 80’s” with Mike, Wee, Suzanne, Blaine and Charlie, and came first with an amazing 20/20! We were probably feeling cocky by then so we stayed for a regular trivia game where we only scored 12. By the time we played the third game, with an announcer who could barely pronounce English, our score had plummeted to 6!

    After dinner we relaxed in our room before I joined Blaine, Suzanne and Charlie at the Windjammer restaurant for a tea before bed. Tomorrow we arrive in Ålesund, which is the first of four days in a row of sightseeing.

    Day 9

    4. juni, Norge ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    Today brought us to our northernmost destination of Honningsvåg, Norway, which is the third highest city in Europe and the fifth highest in the world. It also brought us our first bad weather for the holiday, as it was pouring rain when we arrived.

    We managed to sleep in okay, although this 24 hour sunlight is still playing havoc with our systems! Since we didn’t have any excursions booked for today, we were in no rush to disembark the ship when we arrived at 7:30am. From what we could tell on Google, there was nothing open at that early hour anyway, so the morning was far from busy.

    We disembarked after breakfast with a handful of other passengers, and wandered around town. There was very little to see as everything was still closed, but we did still get some good photos of the waterfront as well as from an unofficial viewpoint we found. There was also nobody walking around so it almost felt like a ghost town. Considering how far north we were, the weather still wasn’t that cold although it did start raining again during our walk.

    We went to the local Christmas Shop which specialised in decorations and Christmas themed items, so we bought a Christmas bauble to add to our collection. I did also want to see the statue of Bamse, a local hero dog who was commemorated and well remembered by the townspeople. Since we had pretty much seen everything we wanted to, and the weather was still rainy, we returned to the ship and it was only 10:30am!

    After getting back onboard we warmed up in Café Latte-tudes, whilst the crew were practicing an emergency drill! Ted and I then relaxed in the Solarium, which was perfect because we virtually had the place to ourselves. These have been perfect opportunities to catch up on reading, Netflix and writing this travel blog.

    When I looked at shore excursions for Honningsvåg, nothing really looked that interesting for the price paid and, after speaking to some of our fellow travellers, I’m glad we did our own thing. One excursion I considered was going to Nordkapp, but it sounded like it was very weather dependent and not overly interesting.

    We joined Blaine, his mum Suzanne, and the boys from Reno for dinner in the Windjammer restaurant, before heading to the Schooner Bar for drinks and to enjoy the music and 24 hour sunlight. We also had plenty of whale and dolphin sightings through the huge windows, which would prompt all the passengers to run to one side of the ship each time! We then moved onto the Safari Bar next door which was quieter and more relaxed, although the service was a lot slower!

    The Safari Bar then hosted a game show called “The Perfect Couple” which I’m glad we didn’t volunteer for because by this time (11:00pm), we were really tired. I felt somewhat silly leaving so early since so many other passengers were still up dancing and drinking in the daylight, but we couldn’t stay awake much longer. Tomorrow will be another ship day as we cruise the Arctic Circle, so I think I’ll make the most of the relaxing time.
