Off on another cruise

Post by Kickaha »

Tomorrow we're off to Southampton to join our next cruise on Monday. This one is to North Norway, with a chance of seeing an eclipse and the Northern Lights. I'll be back around in a bit over two weeks!

My sister-in-law did that cruise some years ago and loved it. Hope for calm seas and good weather!

Have a wonderful time Kickaha. Northern lights are so beautiful. I remember when I was a kid in Nfld the sky was every color in the book. But of course being kids and not knowing what was going on we were terrified of it. Don't forget to take lots of pics, can't want to see them. Enjoy yourselves :flower:

Hello all I'm back! And against the odds did get to see a total solar eclipse - really weird, one moment brightness you can't look at directly, the next moment a black burning sun as if a conjuror had done a magic trick.

Will post more in due course.

Seeing the total eclipse was magical RB!

It was far too cloudy here to see the eclipse in its full glory, but I did see the sun with a smiley face.
