Not Hamburg, Bremerhaven – 17th November – Day 10

18/11/202518/11/2025

I’d had a  good sleep, there was no movement overnight as we’d left the lumpy seas after Ålesund behind us,  and was woken by the PA system announcing that the departing passengers should go and wait in the lounges until called and not block the pursers area. We made it

Heading to Germany – 16th November – Day 9

17/11/202517/11/2025

We actually made breakfast, but to be honest I’m starting to have and issue with this meal in the dining room. I really want to be a bit more healthy but the temptation to over-indulge is always there. I was almost good, bircher muesli and then messed it up with

Ålesund – 15th November – Day 8

16/11/202516/11/2025

I can’t believe it, I slept right through breakfast, normally if I miss breakfast it’s because I’m a lazy so and so and can’t be bothered but today the first thing I knew was Jane prodding me saying it’s 09:30 and I’ve missed breakfast. That’s what happens  when you go

Returning South – 14th November – Day 7

15/11/202515/11/2025

Jane had a lie in while I went to breakfast, requesting a yoghourt/granola pot when I returned to the room. I thought I’d go American for this breakfast, pancakes and crispy bacon, and as you can’t get a sausage pattie I had to make do with a Cumberland sausage instead.

Tromsø Second Day – 13th November – Day 7

14/11/202514/11/2025

We managed to miss breakfast again, obviously over excited by yesterdays adventures. We were on our second day in Tromsø, and had nothing planned before the early afternoon so had decided on finishing off the laundry. I was tasked with ironing my shirts while Jane went in search of a

Tromsø First Day – 12th November – Day 6

14/11/202514/11/2025

We were going to have a quiet day as we had our Northern Light’s tour booked for later in the afternoon. So after a leisurely breakfast where I had my first fry-up it was time to do some laundry. There aren’t any launderettes on deck 9 so I was tasked

Heading North – 11th November – Day 5

13/11/202514/11/2025

Jane nudged me at 08:45 reminding me  I needed to get myself up and dressed if I wanted to make breakfast, but I was still feeling full after the excellent meal in Bamboo the previous evening, so I grunted and turned over and went back to to sleep for a

Trondheim – November 10th – Day 4

11/11/202514/11/2025

We arrived in the Norwegian port of Trondheim overnight, and it’s now noticeably colder on the balcony. We had a walking tour booked for the morning so Jane had decided to get room service for breakfast and have a lie in but I like the Grills Restaurant for breakfast so

North Sea – Remembrance Sunday – November 9th – Day 3

10/11/202510/11/2025

I had a much better sleep, barring one thing, the Illy coffee machine started flashing during the night, and once I’d seen it I couldn’t not see it. I ended up turning it off by unplugging it. I ended up sleeping so late Jane had to nudge me awake and

First Sea Day – Saturday 8th November – Day 2

09/11/202509/11/2025

We decided to go straight to bed after dinner, it had been a hectic day and even though I fancied seeing the featured act in the theatre going to bed was the better choice. We were about to lose an hour because we were moving onto CET from GMT. It’s
