Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creators document their day in Olden, Norway, while docked on the Anthem of the Seas. They participate in a Royal Caribbean excursion to the Briksdal Glacier, which involves a bus ride followed by a strenuous uphill hike. During the trek, they observe waterfalls, mossy rocks they compare to scenes from the movie Frozen, and the receding glacier itself. They note the intense physical effort required for the climb and the beauty of the glacial silt in the water. After returning to the ship, they enjoy a reward of cake and local apple juice. The vlog continues with a walk through the Olden town center, where they explore local architecture featuring grass roofs and visit a cafe for waffles. They also visit a souvenir shop to purchase a troll magnet before returning to the ship. The day concludes with the creators eating dinner at the Windjammer buffet while watching the ship sail away from the fjord, heading toward their next destination in Bergen.
