June 28, 2018 – Sea Day – Sailing the North Sea



It started out a nice cool but sunny day, later got cloudy but no rain.  Not too many pictures today as it is a sea day and all we can see is water and sky.
That being said – it is a lovely day filled with as many activities as you could want.  Everything from Trivia (really tough but the Crazy Canucks got 6 out of 15), scarf tying, learning the cha cha or meeting with the ship’s officers.  There was also Port talks about Bergen including a run down on all the possible excursions available in Bergen – which is the final stop of this cruise. 
Of course there is music playing in three different locations on board, several lectures on very interesting topics and the Captain’s Farewell Event. 
At 5:15 we proceeded to the Atrium for the Captain’s Farewell Event.  It really was a great performance.  Starting off with the Resident Guitarist Daniel and singer Madelaine, a talk about how he became a captain and his desire to be a captain from a very young age, followed by a Thank you video from all the staff.  This was followed up by all the staff entering the atrium and gathering at the front.  Then to top off a great farewell event Brian Rodriguez entertained us one more time.
After a lovely supper we made our way to the Theatre for a performance by the fabulous four singers and the Viking band featuring the songs of the Beatles and ABBA.  What a way to end the cruise – such energy and talent.  Then it was off to bed to prepare for our entrance tomorrow into Bergen.
