Seasons Greetings from Aurora en route to Amsterdam. I cant tell you how fantastic this cruise has been so far. If you like Christmas, you will love the Winter Wonderland cruise. We had snow in Olso, the Christmas markets in Hamburg were excellent, Copenhagen and Tivolli Gardens was out of this world, oh and we slipped into the Ice Bar! Amsterdam tomorrow, and then ice skating, more Christmas markets and of course chocolates in Bruges.
We had the most amazing sailaway from Copenhagen yesterday with a girls marching band in santa suites marching up and down the quay side for close to an hour, while we all stood on prom deck with mulled wine, buttered brandy or warm chocolate orange complete with marshmallows. Then we all dashed round to the port side for an amazing firework display.
We have a stowaway Santa onboard and he keeps turning up in bizarre places, and he is so fast you can never get to have a word with him. Captain and Senior officers are coming to sing carols to us at Dinner this evening.
By the time I get home I will feel like December has been one long Christmas.
I wish I could post you some photos at this present time, but Im afraid you will have to wait until my return.
