  1. Although the front of the camera is protected in the housing , the skeleton backdoor allows easy access to the touch screen, but means the screen is not protected.Was considering fitting screen protector to the LCD screen but with some new cameras , manufacturers recommend you do not fit them. How do you protect the screen?

  2. Hi Paula66

     

    When we were in olden last year we saw several passengers and crew who had hired bikes.The ship docks at a small pier and right next to this you will see the bikes sitting opposite the tourist info center.I seem to recall there was a small portacabin next to this but am unsure whether this is where you hire the bikes or if it is tourist info center. Suggest you email tourist info at olden and they will be able to advise.

  3. cruise brochure usually comes out about approx first week in April.If you have travelled with P & O before you should receive a preview brochure about mid March and also be able to view cruise's online. Hope there are some new ports for 2017.

  4. We spent the day in Hellesylt after the port call to Geiranger was cancelled.When you exit the pier dock, if you turn right across lower bridge at bottom of waterfall passed the Grand hotel and Sherlock Holmes pub which has free wi fi you will arrive at the ferry dock( free toilets) From here you can take the ferry to Geiranger( return fare 215 NOK, prices as of May 2015)Crossing time approx 65 minutes each way.You can also follow the walk way up passed the impressive waterfall to the top road where the main bus stop is. From here you cross the top bridge with the waterfall below you and head down past the small church .Just pass here is a path that will take you further up the hill to view point /picnic area with good views. As you head back into town there are two supermarkets,joker and co op marked,plus two souvenir shops, bank with cash machine and a cafe,if you walk further along the valley there is a camp ground and several walks.
