We only have one full "at sea" day, unless something unexpected happens, and today was it. We joined the hoards for a late breakfast and got very slow, spotty service as the staff was overwhelmed. At the main restaurant, "The Restaurant"😂😂, the waiters seem to work in threes- a chief waiter and two assistants. The crew is truly international and at a ratio of almost 1 crew member to every 2.5 guests, we haven’t seen much less than perfection. Oh well, things happen.

We took a self guided art tour around the ship after breakfast admiring the many high quality, and mostly Scandinavian pieces of art aboard. Like in a museum, you can hear commentary for each work through our onboard Viking app.

The jogging deck allowed us to see the different varieties of like boats up close and personal. Or at least as up close as we would like to get!

We had signed up for a bridge tour where a second assistant officer showed us the high tech equipment, computers and the incredibly small ships wheel.

There is a separate security room where they can zoom in on any place on the ship to check out such things as fire, smoke, water, etc. we are definitely in good hands.

Lunch was at Mamsen’s again. Jim asked for a Norwegian hotdog, a special of the day and was told it was very tiny. So he ordered two. They were huge!

Rest of the day was spent catching up on this blog, or trying to since downloading pictures or uploading them to the blog is nearly impossible. Preparing for tomorrow which is now an incredibly early day took up the rest of the evening.
