Last Day – Art and Craft Exhibition
Today was the final day on our Treasures of Scandinavia cruise.
As is traditional, I ran a single class this morning (in the Supper Club), and this afternoon an exhibition was held in the Arts and Crafts Room, featuring the paintings, craft and pottery produced by guests during the trip.
It’s always nice to see all the work on display, even if there weren’t that many sea days in which to produce it. As I always like to say at this point in the proceedings; in the words of Mary Poppins and Bart Simpson – my work here is done.
Tomorrow we arrive back in Dover and face a long drive home. We’ll be back in July, though – on Fred Olsen’s ‘Borealis’, when we sail from Southampton to Norway, for an even shorter cruise billed as ‘Mountains, Glaciers & Fjords of Norway’. It’ll be the first time on Fred Olsen since October 2012, when we sailed to the Black Sea on the Black Watch. I’ve never worked on the Borealis before, so it’ll be interesting to see how things may have changed in the intervening time, and to compare their way of doing things compared to the luxury we’ve become accustomed to with Saga. Bring it on…
