[Worldtrippers home] [2025 Crystal-Viking]
In the middle of a marathon of consecutive ports, we had a rare sea day. To celebrate, the culinary staff prepared an amazing brunch on the pool deck. We have not been aboard for the entire world cruise, but we are told this was the most stunning spectacle the ship has put on. We were treated to table after table of food – everything from breakfast omelets to pastries to sweets. But the food itself was secondary to the decorative presentations. The culinary staff worked for almost a week to prepare this.
Russell presented his 12th and final lecture before Greenwich/London. Gail came up on stage at the end to thank all the guests. The audience rewarded us with a standing ovation (our second this cruise).
Today was the last sea day before the 2024 Viking World Cruise ends in London. There are 220 guests who will continue on to New York. But the majority of world cruisers will disembark in Greenwich on May 6. In addition, three shiploads of new guests will embark between Greenwich and New York, so the entire culture and community of the ship will change.
We end this post with some photos from the farewell brunch…
