We could not restart the tradition of brunch at Standing Orders today because we both had to work all day. I had to get up in the morning because we got a bunch of brand new equipment that we had to bring on. Then I was on embarkation taking photos of all the new passengers as they get on the ship. Many were late because of a traffic accident. Normally I would have had to go to the Passenger drills but ended up being exempt to help get the last people to the drill. Then restaurants for the rest of the night. Followed by a movie night with Jackson.Read more

A very interesting start to the day. The ship does drills all the time so everyone knows their emergency duties. Today however was a bit different. We had a drill in the morning but it was a ship evacuation where most of the crew had to evacuate the ship. Chris (manager), Rob (photog) and myself were all exempt from the drill however. Chris was up on the bridge filming and taking pictures well Rob and I were on the quayside. Rob taking pictures and I was filming. We were freezing to death so we were very glad we didn’t have to stand in lines like all the other crew.
There was another Norwegian videography team there filming. They had a drone but they wouldn’t come in the security area around the ship so they had to use the drone and film through fences. Apparently we were also on the local news. There was a helicopter that flew over a few times and I learned later that is what it was.
By the time the drills was done I just had time for a quick nap before I had to head to work for the evening.Read more

Had my first meeting today as the new representative for all the concessions at the Ship’s HESS (Health, Environment, Safety, Security) meeting.
As soon as that was finished Jackson and I headed out into Flaam. We ran into the gangway guys so of course we got a photo. Then we just wandered around for a bit before stopping for some lunch at Toget Café which is a café made from an old train car. We’re having a nice lunch date sharing a very yummy pizza.Read more

Wasn’t able to get off today because of work. The next time I’m here I’ll be giving my parents a tour and they’ll be meeting Jackson for the first time.

Would have loved to get off today but chose today as one of my IPMs because I was able to get off yesterday in Scotland and I didn't want to miss any of Iceland. Today was also a tender port which means we don't dock. We just anchor off shore and take a tender boat in.
So instead of getting off today I'm having a relax day where I'm doing hardly anything. Normally when you're IPM you have to get up for gangway but we're not doing gangways this cruise. So I don't have to do anything until I start work at 4:00pm.Read more

Had a bad start to the day but it ended amazingly. We had crew drills in the morning after which Jackson and I had plans to go out and do some exploring. Jackson even took his day off today so we would have lots of time together. We got all ready and when we got to the gangway to get off we found out Jackson is IPM. Made even better by the fact that i’m IPM tomorrow for the second day in Reykjavik. Luckily it’s an overnight and neither of us are IPM from 6pm today to 6am tomorrow. So it did not mess up our plans to go on the crew tour. I got off work early and we headed to the Blue Lagoon one of the top 25 wonders of the world. It was so nice! It was like a MASSIVE pretty hot tub in the middle of a lava field. There was silica face masks and you got a free drink. I had a blueberry smoothie. When we left it was almost 1am and the sun was still a ways from setting. Our skin feels so soft but now it’s 2am so it’s time for some sleep.Read more
