...and that could have been Oriana's last visit in that livery. Unbelievable that she is already 19 years old.

Thanks once more for providing us with this constant stream of nice pictures.

I've just returned from three weeks in Norway on PRINSENDAM. Like others, I've always enjoyed Galaxy's photos, but now I can appreciate them even more. The Norwegian fjords are simply spectacular... and, of course, stunning locations to photograph cruise ships!

We shared Geiranger with EMPRESS and MSC POESIA, but I would have preferred the company of FUNCHAL, BLACK WATCH, etc.

Thanks Galaxy.

It was a sad day yesterday when DISCOVERY had her last visit to Olden.....One thing i cant tell for sure is that i gona miss her....So sad old classic ships cant be take care of and give a long life on the big oceans and for visit small ports and big towns. Now there is only few left of the classic ships....lets enjoy them as long they still sailing around.

Today was the yacht Daydream with Jamaica flag visit Olden.

I hope you don't mind if I tag on to your thread. We recently returned from the fjords aboard Celebrity Eclipse. This was our second time for this cruise... still one of our favorites. More scenic than Alaska in our opinion which we've also done twice.
