Saturn's Iceland and Norway's Arctic Explorer-July 19-August 2 LIVEish

Panomax curiosity - The disappointing views (looking at sky and deck) explained as a need to put the camera "down" when going under bridges. Took a look this morning at Neptune's Panomax history while on this itinerary and, sure enough, the same issue in these areas. Seems a small price to pay for the great scenic views we have because we can sail in these types of areas. Maybe, some day, there'll be a remote, mechanical mechanism to raise/lower these cameras so that future cruisers can see the wonders of nature that await their arrival! -

Sherry & I have had a wonderful cruise and met some genuinely fine folks. Tonight's exceptional dining experience stands above all! Such good food and service BUT far surpassed by our special dinner companions. Thank you Clay, Mike, Sandy, Paul, Paul, Mary Ann, Scott, Gary and Robert for making this such a special event. 🙂 -

Simply Amazing - Sailing from Honningsvag down through Norwegian fjords & waterways is like sailing the intercoastal waterway! Stunning vistas all around. With midnight sun it's 24/7. 👍 -

Similar story with us. Still have most of what we got. Think we'll give it to exceptional crew member(s) as we think they'll be back in Iceland. 🤑 -

We're in Barents Sea and continue to have internet. Too slow 🐌 for streaming but internet nonetheless. Glad to have it. Thought we'd have dead zones but none so far. 🤷 Lets Clay keep sending his news feed. 🙏 -

Sea day 2 and still have, albeit sluggish, internet. Didn't expect to have it in such an "off the beaten path" and remote area. -

Chef's Table tonight - dessert featured crumbled/chopped pistachios as a garnish. Seemed like a waste of perfectly good pistachios but there you have it - crumbled gastronomic dreams. 😥 -

US Georgia. Lived in Germany for a number of years. Have traveled in Europe and frequently needed the WC in short order. -

WC took me a minute to understand. Wondered what the water closet had to do with pastry! 😬 -

Odd. I emailed, and got a response from, the ship over a week ago. It was clear from the response that the "IT Team" was blowing smoke. The panomax on Saturn has not been right from the time it left Ancona. Maybe the GM is not getting needed information from crew members. -

Edition is VERY nice, convenient location (next to Harpa) and pricey (we're using Marriott points). Whatever you choose, book early as prices go up and availability goes down. -

We're like ships passing in the night. Hotel is Edition. Doing whales & puffins today and walked by Hofnin about the time you were waiting. Didn't look. 🙄 -
