• Alta--oops, Fjord Day-Sea Day #2/3

    16 de outubro, Noruega ⋅ 🌧 3 °C

    We woke up to a blustery day. The water looked a bit choppy, and I thought, "hmmm- gonna be interesting on the tender. We planned to take a tender, then a shuttle to the town. Upstairs at breakfast, the Captain came on the speaker and uncharacteristically, everyone was quiet and listened. He explained that a tender had been lowered and went ashore with a medical emergency. During the process they determined that due to the high winds and sea state, it would be too dangerous to carry out tendering. So- we had a pilot aboard, and spent the day traversing the fjords. It was beautiful, and an opportunity we wouldn't have had otherwise.

    I sat in Ginza and worked on the needlework charting, making a lot of progress.

    After a bite of lunch, I went to the room, and realized we had an additional specialty meal, so we decided to go to Ginza for dinner.

    So good- sushi, and a couple of shrimp dishes. We shared rice pudding with mango for dessert. I ended my evening by fixing another "medicine ball" to hopefully put an end to the "kennel cough."
