ShipsInBergen Posted May 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Over the past couple of weeks, all three of the current Viking ocean cruise ships have called into their homeport of Bergen. I've really enjoyed seeing them close-up, and have now featured each of them (along with a full set of photos) on my hobby blog of ships in the city... VIKING STAR: http://shipsinbergen.blogspot.no/2017/05/viking-star.html VIKING SKY: http://shipsinbergen.blogspot.no/2017/05/viking-sky.html VIKING SEA: http://shipsinbergen.blogspot.no/2017/05/viking-sea.html I hope these are of interest ot some of you here :). If my budget allowed it I'd be booking a Viking cruise in a heartbeat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deec Posted May 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I thought the SKY was going to be Christened while she was there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roothy123 Posted May 19, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Beautiful pictures of a beautiful ship. I saw on Marine Traffic this morning that one of the Viking ships was there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Peregrina651 Posted May 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I thought the SKY was going to be Christened while she was there?? A January press release said she would be christened in Tromso: Viking Sky will make her way to officially be christened under Norway’s “midnight sun” on June 22 in Tromsø STAR was christened in Bergen and SEA was christened in London.

deec Posted May 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2017 thanks for the correction......what a perfect time and place! We hope they will Christen the SUN while we are aboard next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShipsInBergen Posted May 20, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Yes, SKY is scheduled to be christened next month in Tromsø, although I wish it was here in Bergen, as I sadly missed STAR's ceremony 2 years ago. It seems like the trend is for these ceremonies to take place later and later into the maiden seasons of modern cruise ships...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
