Norway Cruise 2015 – The Food, Part 2

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Wednesday night was the Captain’s Gala ship-wide menu. We were in Lumiere’s again. We ordered a lot of different things – I think this is the most photos I have for one meal! I started with the regional White Onion Soup with caraway and smoked salmon. As I recall the smoked salmon was not overwhelming … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – The Food, Part 2"

Norway Cruise 2015 – The Food, Part 1

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
It’s not a set of cruise blogs without some information on all of the dining, too! We’ve been on enough Disney cruises that we are familiar with a lot of the menu items – they don’t change that frequently. One thing we really enjoyed about this cruise was that there were some new offerings: each … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – The Food, Part 1"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 7, Bergen

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Thursday – Bergen Lee followed Commodore Tom’s advice and got up at 6:00 to go up on deck, but I stayed in bed for another half hour. After that I put on shoes and a jacket and went out on the verandah. I’m afraid the sail-in to Bergen didn’t appear that special to me. Nothing … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 7, Bergen"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 6, Geiranger

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Wednesday – Geiranger The Commodore had told us to be out on deck by 5:45, so we set the alarm for 5:15. And 5:15 came very early. It was already quite light outside since sunrise was at 4:05. It was overcast and windy but not raining. I put on just about every layer I had: … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 6, Geiranger"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 5, Alesund

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Tuesday – Alesund We had a fair bit of motion during the night, but not bad. Mostly things were creaky. I slept better but the jet lag caught up with Lee and he was awake for a while…just watching the hours tick by…. We had an excursion in the morning, but we didn’t have to … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 5, Alesund"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 4, Stavanger

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Monday – Stavanger Our first port in Norway! As a reminder, it’s pronounced “Stuh-VON-gur”. It was an early day for us – we needed to meet for our excursion at 8:15. So we got up about 7:00 and went to Cabanas for breakfast. Lots of other people up early, also. It was looking like an … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 4, Stavanger"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 3, Embarkation and Sea Day

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Saturday – Embarkation and Sailaway As I mentioned in Part 2, we were very happy to get to the port and see the Disney Magic waiting for us! Though we really enjoyed Copenhagen, we were ready to begin our cruise to Norway. Disney had added a few touches to the generic cruise terminal they are … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 3, Embarkation and Sea Day"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 2, Sweden & Copenhagen

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Friday I slept a little better – at least I wasn’t wide awake at 2:00. Our plan for the day was to go over to Malmö, Sweden. My paternal grandmother was Swedish, and I wanted to visit Sweden since we were so close. There’s a tunnel and bridge (the Øresund Bridge) between Copenhagen and Malmö, … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 2, Sweden & Copenhagen"

Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 1, Wonderful Copenhagen

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
When Disney Cruise Line announced they were sailing to Norway for the first time in 2015, we thought about it for all of a couple seconds before deciding we wanted to go. Though we did spend more time deciding which Norway itinerary. There were three offered: the seven-night and nine-night Norway cruises, and then a … Continue reading "Norway Cruise 2015 – Part 1, Wonderful Copenhagen"
