YouTube Video Description

Welcome to the most beautiful port I've EVER seen!! Geiranger, Norway absolutely blew me away. From the moment I woke up and looked outside my balcony door to see the landscape we were sailing by, I knew this place was something special. Today is day 5 on this 10-day Norwegian Prima Iceland & Norway cruise, and I had a feeling Geiranger was going to be a highlight of the cruise from pictures I had seen online beforehand - and I wasn't wrong! I signed up for a shore excursion (through NCL) to visit Dalsnibba Mountain with what I knew would be incredible views... I just didn't realize how scary it would be getting up there! This really challenged my fear of heights, but I loved every second of taking in the INCREDIBLE mountainous views and scenery from the top of the lookout. We also enjoyed local coffee and pastries from a B&B on our way up the mountain, and a second breathtaking overlook with a perfect picturesque view of the ship. Today was truly one of my favorite port days on a ship, EVER! I just love Norway and hope you enjoy getting a glimpse of the scenery as I take you along with me on this amazing day in Geiranger.
