The Next Adventure

05-16: We are going to leave on a new adventure pretty soon. This is a “mail run” cruise, RT Bergen. We travel up above the Arctic Circle and back to Bergen. It is a cruise, but a totally different experience. What is the makeup of people on this cruise: Cabin passengers: 468 passengers (housed in 179 staterooms and suites). Day/foot passengers: 172 passengers (who use reserved recliner seats for shorter port-to-port journeys). We will have full board. There is a bar and a snack bar between meals. There are no evening shows, but there are lectures and things like that. Excursions are also interesting! Some start in one port and take you back to the ship in the next scheduled port. Some stops are in the middle of the night for 15 or 20 minutes, just to drop the mail! After this voyage we will join back-to-back Viking n the Baltics where Stuart will be speaking. I have not been on Viking Ocean Cruises, so that will be a new adventure as well.
