One from each class of ship and this year I am on the Jewel twice once in Norway and once out of Boston to Greenland. Hoping I will get my 5th crystal and I like having one from each class. toodles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Island Lady thanks so much for all the great photos and this makes some of the bad weather and missed dockings worth it. what is sticking out of your pocket? Yes, I smuggled my cat on board. 😄 😁 1 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm learning to dance to the movement I am pretty good with ship movements but not for more than 3 hours then I get annoyed. On Oasis last year I had a room oceanview in front of ship. I had very loud wind for over 24 hours and it got on my nerves. but the movement was okay and interesting to watch as I was above the bridge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of trying to make them when we got home! If you ask nicely they would probably give you the recipe, though the batch size would be quite large.

Nice! We have a Serenade block, but it’s clear. We should be getting another one on our segments in the summer, I would love if it was the same and has the 2 sides like yours.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted January 12 Author #2213 Share Posted January 12 (edited) Little closer to the island...some really massive jagged mountains coming up in front of us on the horizon. Just saw Penguins jumping out of the water, couple of pods. Little buggers too quick to capture on film. Orcas and Humpbacks with the binoculars. Luckily brought two pair, so Bucky and I don't have to share. 😄 Edited January 12 by island lady 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The water and ice has such beautiful colors. Will you see be there when the sun sets? If so you should get some cool looking pictures like we got. Awesome colors in the icebergs. How did you get the close-ups? Were you on a tender or excursion? Or just a great camera with fantastic zoom lens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steeler Nation At Sea Posted January 12 #2219 Share Posted January 12 (edited) 2 hours ago, lovesthebeach2 said: it’s so cool (literally lol) to see the huge chunks of ice. When we did the Arctic Crossing in 2022 and did a day cruise on Prins Christin Sund, the crew was all outside with us the whole time. I was so happy to see them enjoying it as much as us. I’m trying to attach 2 pics. Not sure if this works.. one night during dinner the captain announced for us to go out and see the train of icebergs, and the sun was setting at the same time. Sorry, I can’t get the iceberg one to post… IMG_5258.heic 861.51 kB · 18 downloads I was able to download and view your 2nd file. Here it is. I was on the Voyager Arctic crossing in '22 and remember thinking that to me , and from a longer distance, that you wouldn't know you weren't looking at a city skyline filled with tall buildings. I have some video of whale spray in front of that scene, too. Magic. Edited January 12 by Steeler Nation At Sea 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
