Hi

We are in a cafe in town today having a coffee. We are enjoying the cruise although the ports haven't been great and it's cold. This is the largest town we have visited and it's lovely. Haven't seen much of Chrissy but we are meeting up with Gill and Pete and Loraine and Rob. Loraine is lovely, a real Crazy Cruiser. Everything is very expensive in Norway, it's definitely not the Mediterranean.

I haven't read through the posts so I hope your all okay and keeping well. Only one more stop then we head back to Southampton.

Miss you all but we will be back soon

Carol xx

YAY , hi Carol , it's been lovely having updates from you and Gill , I keep looking at the cam shot and can see people milling around , you could have been one of them lol , not many on top deck , I expect it's too cold up there .

So glad you are having a great time , sometimes it's just the people you meet that makes the cruise what it is ( as we all know )

I knew Lorraine would fit in well , you have to be crazy to be a crazy cruiser and sorry Lorraine but you fit that bill

I will not say only two more days till you are back in Southampton ( oops I already did ) but we have missed you and are looking forward to you returning ( sorry Gill lol ) enjoy the rest of your cruise , love to all .

Wow Linda, you seem to be a bit of a webcam pro
I havent managed to get on while theyve been in port the last couple of days, will definately try and get on tomorrow and catch the last port. This week has flown by!
Well done on your weight loss again Sam, you should be really proud of yourself, it takes a lot of will power to stick at it!
Nice to hear from Carol, shame about the weather hope it picks up for their journey back to Southampton. I know they will all be itching to get on the flowrider
Off to catch up on the live review from the last couple of days!

Jasmine x

Shame the webcam didnt work, although i didnt get chance to have a look.
Had this afternoon off work as i went over to aberystwyth with simon to a cycle series, he did his first road race and found it tough going! It was blowing a gale over there, just having chips in the car on our way to the football match he is reffing tonight, which is luckily in the same direction ish!
Hope it is not as windy on indy, hopefully its lashing the west coast and not over the east yet!

Morning girls .

Well the girls are on their way back to Southampton , that week has gone very quick even though I have missed them all .

Both Carol and Gill text yesterday saying that Stavenger was lovely , their best port by the sounds of it and the sun was shining for them , so nice for their last port to be a high for them .

I am off to a wedding this morning , I don't even know the bride and groom lol , it's someone Brian knows , I am still not sure what to wear , I just hope it's not as cold as yesterday or I will freeze as my choice of outfits are not warm clothes , I can see me sitting in the car trying to keep warm when all the outdoor stuff is going on lol .

Hi

This is our last day so as you can imagine we are busy packing up and having last look arounds. Yesterday in Stavanger the weather was beautiful and it was a lovely little town, they definately kept the best til last. Alesund was nice too and we were glad to be in towns as with the first 3 ports it was all about the scenery with mountains and waterfalls. It is absolutely beautiful but after 3 days of it we were glad to be back to civilisation. I dont thnk we will cruise in Norway again but we are glad we have done this cruise and its been great fun. We have been meeting up everynight at 11pm in the Cafe and staying there until we wee small hours (you should see the bags under my eyes) and we have enjoyed catching up with what everyone has been up to. Have only see Chrissy a few times just for a minute or two but she is fine and enjoying herself.

Thanks for tracking us along the way, it must have been strange to see Indy and know that we were on board.

We have been eating continuously since last Saturday, I dont know where we are putting it all. The food is all lovely in the places we have gone to. We are having our last meet at 3.30pm in the Windjammer just in time for afternoon tea but it will be our last one until we are back in September.

Hope you have a good time at the wedding Linda and well done Sam for the continued weight loss. Enjoy your chips Jasmine and hopefully the weather will improve for you

Must go now for morning tea and cookies

Carol xx
