YouTube Video Description

Today I docked in Gdynia, Poland on the Norwegian Dawn! It is day 8 of 12 on my solo Eastern European/Baltic Cruise and I have never been to Poland before! I debated on doing an excursion, but since we had a short day in port and were only docked from 3pm - 10pm, I thought I would just do some exploring on foot and get dinner out in town. I really enjoyed my walk and got so lucky with nice sunny weather! I decided to stop at a tavern called "Kapitan Cook" and had a delicious meal before heading back to catch a GORGEOUS sunset from the ship. What an enjoyable day on the NCL Dawn!
