Creator's Key Takeaways

I slept right through the all the rough seas last night. God bless meclizine or Dramamine, as it's a generic of it.

Nothing bad to say about the Spitsbergen except I wish they had put little uh racks on the wall where you can put your necessities.

A big plus for Hurtigruten is the only cruise line I've ever been with that actually gives you, along with the hairdryer, a diffuser.

The food has been good. There's plenty of good plenty of choices. And I don't know what else to say except I enjoyed it immensely.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take meclizine (generic Dramamine) for seasickness.
Bring a cloth napkin and cold water for rough seas.
Request a cabin with racks on the wall for stability.
