    Morning Medicine the Danish way

     July 13, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    So the warning came true- we were met with the most amazing breakfast buffet.... and small glasses of Danish rocket fuel! Apparently it was made with yellow snare, Heather and dune rose.... and brewed with some form of pure alcohol- I will stick to coffee in future!!
    Had the longest walk from Hirtshals to the Smyril Line ferry to take us to Faroe Islands carrying all luggage And emergency food- because we were too tight to get a taxi!
    32 hours and we will be in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands- v exciting.    Read more

    2 Tage auf See

     January 4, North Sea ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    Man muss sich nur mit den richtigen Leuten gut stellen 😊. Habe heute 2 Flaschen Weißwein von einem Crewmitglied geschenkt bekommen. Außerdem hat mir der Barchef eine riesen Freude gemacht. Er hat mir eine Tüte mit leckerem Essen aus dem Passagierrestaurant an die Kabinentür gehangen😁 Lachs, Brötchen, 2 Rösti, Omelette und 2 Joghurts. Sogar Besteck und Stoffserviette waren mit dabei. Ich hoffe er macht das jetzt öfter 😅. Heute Abend wird mal wieder eine Crewparty veranstaltet 🤣 also ich komme hier wirklich nicht aus dem Feiern rausRead more

    Schnitzeljagt

     July 10, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Was eine freudige Überraschung am Morgen. Meine Kollegen sind einfach zu süß ❤️

    Das erste Post it klebte auf meinem Schreibtisch und schickte mich wie jeden Morgen auf Deck 8 zur Poolbar um die Zeitungen abzugeben. Dort wartet der zweite Hinweis, wieder runter auf Deck 2 zum Hic, dieser gab mir freudestrahlend den nächsten post it, der hieß ab auf Deck 9 zur Brücke. Dort angekommen begrüßte mich Alexander und ließ mich den Zettel suchen, der am Funkgerät hing. Nach einer kurzen Kaffeepause musste Ich wieder runter auf Deck 3 zum IT Büro, gleich neben meinem. Der gab mir den Hinweis, dass meine Kolleginn was für mich hat und dann bekam ich ein unfassbar süßes Geschenk 😍Read more

    22-7-2019 Ramsey

     July 22, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Vroeg wakker, dus ondanks relaxed, rijd ik om 8.15 weg. Neem me voor om niet de boot te willen halen, maar te fietsen in het nu. Mooi langs de Rotte, wind tegen ja. Hoe dichter bij Rotterdam, hoe minder leuk, al doen ze hun best met de knooppunten. En ik maar op mijn horloge kijken. Om half 11 heb ik 22 km gefietst en het is nog 26. Ga ik écht niet halen dus, ik moet er om 12.15 zijn volgens mij. Maar toch heuen en het fietst best zwaar. Dus doe ik boodschappen bij de Lidl, dan weet ik tenminste zeker dat ik het niet haal. Pauze, foto van de stormvloed kering. En dan gaan de kms opeens van 19 naar 10 naar 5 en zie ik volgens mij de boot liggen. Toch maar een "sprintje". Het is net 12:45, misschien mag ik nog mee. Klopt, ze zijn nog aan het boarden. Toch leuk. Dat van dat doel los laten is/was nog niet helemaal gelukt.
    Wát een ruk. Help me herinneren dat ik niet met een cruise mee ga. Eten is pas vanaf 5 uur (6 uur Nederlandse tijd) en dan stáát er toch een onbewegelijke rij. Ik zag nog net op tijd het plaatje van de zielige vegieburger. La ma. Ik heb wel trek en mijn chips zitten op het autodek. Ennuh: 2 dagen, 110 km. en mijn kont is al stuk. 😢
    En ik krijg mijn tablet weer niet op de WiFi en hij wil ook niet met de bluetooth met mijn telefoon praten. Grrrr.
    Ik pin toch voor de zekerheid geld aan boord, ondanks de 3,49 commissie. En ga vervolgens in Harwich op zoek naar een geldautomaat om 3,49 te sparen. Merk pas als ik mijn geld weg wil stoppen dat ik dus al gepind had. Zucht.
    Voordeel is wel dat ik hierdoor per ongeluk al op het cycle netwerk zit! Hartstikke leuk.
    De caravancamp in Harwich die volgens wiki camps ook tenten doet, doet dat niet en de volgende in Ramsey is vol, ik mag er toch staan, pfjoeh. (En het is een pub, je kan er pinnen😅). Het wordt al donker (22.00=23.00 onze tijd). We staan haring aan haring, en recht is anders, maar ik slaap wel, al ben ik zo moe dat het best duurt voor ik in slaap val, ondanks mijn eerste cidertje van de tap. Mjum!

    A day at sea

     June 3, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    A day at sea! What to do? The internet doesn’t work well and it is chilly outside. We enjoyed a lazy breakfast in our room and then made our way to the gym. For an exciting afternoon we did laundry (Tom actually did it and I watched)
    We have watched many large ships pass us by, and could see the coast of The Netherlands in the distance.

    Tonight we are going to Jacques; the French restaurant on board. So we are dressing up and first going to the Captains welcome gathering and then for dinner!

    Tomorrow we are going to be in Kristiansand, Norway.    Read more

    Stockholm Sweden

     June 7, 2019, North Sea ⋅ 🌫 13 °C

    Sailing into Stockholm on a crystal clear morning calm as glass. Breathtaking!
    The sun has not really set in Stockholm..it is light all night as we are within a couple of weeks of the eqinox . It is amazing to see the sun set after 11pm. The temp today 30C..clear and hot.
    Paul and I enjoyed a leisurely walk around the old town this morning as our tour was not till the afternoon. Fun to see Swedish Fika everwhere..the tradition of coffee and a pastry I remember hearing from our students.
    It is evident Sweden is a very wealthy city with an abundance of talented professionals. Many doctors train here at the university of Stockholm and excellent facilities abound.
    We visited the city hall where the Noble prizes are awarded..quite awe inspiring. I took a pic of Paul in the couryard where so many great minds have stood...saying that is where he could be awarded the Nobel prize for Quality Lol!!
    There are 10 mill in Sweden..2.2 in Stockholm ..they are members of EU but not of Nato. We were told the citizens wish they were as their neighbour to the east is a concern for all.
    There are 14 islands 60 canals. 57 bridges..it is hard to get around lots of traffic issues.
    It is a very old city dating back to 1252. It is home to many writers journalists and scientists.
    Stockholm..very expensive..dinner out 120E average meal
    Housing very expensive pepple spend 45 percent of their income on housing. They pay some of the highest tax in Europe.. .
    We loved the vibe and found it very picturesque. Wish we had more time here.    Read more

    Day 41b. MS Ocean Majesty

     September 14, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    We boarded the MS Ocean Majesty at 2:30pm. The ship departed at 4:30pm.
    We had late lunch on Lido Deck 7 followed by the Safety Drill. We then unpacked and read the information placed in our cabin J77 on Level 4. Vera is in cabin J8. Sorted out our excursions with Vera, then had a nap. Got up for half priced drinks during Happy Hour then strolled into dinner at 7pm. Ron and I went to the restaurant and Vera decided to go up to the buffet on the Lido deck. We sat with a lovely couple from the Netherlands, Selma and Leo. The meal was fabulous. I had 5 of the 6 courses and Ron had all 6.
    At 9:15pm we went to The Show in The Hansa Show Lounge. Showtime Broadway Musicals by The Sofystic Chic Dance Group. It was fabulous.    Read more

    Day 42. Ocean Majesty, English Channel

     September 15, 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    A relaxing day at sea today. Moving through the English Channel from Bremerhaven in Germany to St Peter Port in Guernsey in the Channel Islands. These island once belonged to Spain and to France but now to Britannia beholden to the Royal Family (referred to as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles) not the English Parliament.
    We went to breakfast in the restaurant at 9:15am.
    At 10am we went to the information session on St Peter Port, Guernsey and Lorien, France. The tour leader’s, Peter Jurgilewitsch, presentation was very interesting and extremely informative. Fabulous slideshow ending with the music ‘Rue Britannia’ from a symphony by Henry Wood. This music is commonly used for church hymns.
    We had lunch on the Lido Deck with Vera. The food is way too good.
    A much needed rest in the afternoon to prepare for Happy Hour at 6pm, Welcome Cocktails at 6:30pm and the Captain’s Welcome Dinner at 7pm and the Welcome Show in the Show Lounge at 9pm.    Read more
