Creator's Key Takeaways

she's our favorite ship um and actually we were very pleasantly surprised that she's in very good nick you could say

the food was probably a little better than it was last year when we were on um and all in all yeah very pleased with her

I think I just think that for me Antarctica would just be a step too far

the northern lights are there but you don't necessarily see them as they're shown on the photographs

Take advantage of any lectures on board about photography
