On the ship

Well...yesterday we boarded the Veendam in Copenhagen. We had the same driver from the hotel who picked us up at the airport and he gave us a little more of a driving your of some parts of Copenhagen.

Boarding was very smooth and quick. We had our luggage quite early and were able to unpack before dinner - we have early seating at 5:45. So far it seems like we have a nice group at our table.

We arrived in Oslo, Norway and did a tour that visited the Hadeland Glassworks where we watched glassblowers make bowls and wine glasses. Quite interesting. Then, we visited the Viking Ship Museum where there were 3 almost complete Viking ships on display. The ships were from around 800 to 900 AD. Two were almost complete, intact ships.

We got back to the ship around 3PM - which was tough on us since we hadn't had lunch. Thank goodness for the snacks in the Concierge Lounge on our floor so we could get something light to hold us over for dinner.

Also, played trivia after we got back. But, we only did so-so. It looks like we will have tough competition.
