Day 9 - Friday, June 21, 2024 - Crossing the Artic Circle - Sea Day

 





Today was our second consecutive day at sea as we head for the northern most point in Norway.  

A late wake up, followed by breakfast and then watching a round of Cirnhole or as Viking calls it, Baggo.

The highlight was the ceremony of taking an icy plunge into the hot tub filled with ice cubes at high noon on the longest day of the year.  

I brought with me, a tutu and tiara for the occasion.  After my plunge, I was annointed with blue icing on my nose and then a shot of Aquavit ( similar to a shot of Vodka).  The crowning glory, our certificate as evidence of the crossing.

Wayne took some pictures that he'll upload too.  If course, he used the excuse not to take the plunge as he did it in the Navy.   My opinion, he wimped out.  But he did play photographer for myself, Amy and Roger who all took the plunge.
