  1. dont think we have had this a strait in all but name accessed partly by passaging another strait
  2. Basically agree with sfred comments. We had 2nd sitting no problems Jose and Adrian excellent waiters, as of old once the new system sorted itself we were in Britannia at 2020 most nights and out within the hour. Weather could have been kinder but skies cleared enough to see the NL from ship in Tromso and fully out of town. I suspected Alesund and Stavanger would be cancelled when I viewed some synoptic weather charts in Trondheim. Zeebrugge and Bruges were a reasonable alternative with good weather. For what we need internet was ok in cabin and quick in library and Connexions. Little evidence of Covid for our 12 days with no calls for return to cabin etc after Bergen, those calls might have been for late returnees. At Southampton for first time UK newspapers were for sale in grand lobby since restart or at least for our 5 cruises. Thinking about it with OH the following have yet to be reintroduced: Cocktails parties Dance hosts Port Talks Chefs Parade Kitchen tours Full ship tours There may be others.
