I’m not sure if i watch this twice, maybe i did and this is another comment, all the binge watching getting to me…. ANYWAYS, wow, not sure whats more breathtaking the hike or the views! Great shoots of nature MER, EVERYTHING LOOKS AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL! The cruise doesn’t look like a sold out cruise, love it, great job!
One thing I appreciate about your vlogs, and it's kind of strange, is that you are able to roll with the situation well. Bad weather, change plans and still have fun. Tour cancelled, change plans and have fun. I have sadly seen other videos in which the cruise line is blamed for things like rain and the presenter complains about how their holiday is ruined. So, thank you for showing that a good day is what you make of it :)
Thank you! That's exactly right, plans change, things don't go as we expect sometimes and that's okay, it's definitely not going to cause me to have a bad time because I'm on vacation! Everything is what you make of it and I always choose to make the best of any situation 😊 thanks so much for your comment and for watching!
Another fabulous video and beautiful port, I can’t wait to visit! I read about the rockslides and closed roads last month, so we cancelled our excursion and decided to just explore the town when we are there. Looks like we made the right choice! I’ll be in your neck of the woods next weekend, heading to King of Prussia for a family reunion!
@@terriguske4530 great choice, I hope you have an amazing port day, Ålesund is so walkable and fun to explore! Thank you - enjoy KOP, hope the heat dies down by the time you’re here 🥵😊
You have made me consider taking a cruise. I have always imagined them full of people partying a little too hard and being loud and inconsiderate... a bit chaotic. But, this seems really nice, and Norway looks beautiful. NCL is lucky to have your elegant vlog.
@@adamzimmerman6660 thank you so much!! I love to hear this, cruises are often not at all what people think they are 😊 I especially recommend longer cruises with a unique itinerary like this one to Iceland/Norway where you are traveling with like-minded folks who are excited to see a beautiful area of the world vs just wanting to party 😄
I was on this cruise with my daughter; and on deck 12! Sorry I didn't meet you; I didn't take any of the excursions you were on. It was too bad about Amsterdam, but everything else was great.
I really love this video and all are so helpful…..my new girlfriend highly recommended your channels and I can see why. We want to do a Norwegian next year but for now looking for a Mediterranean as we are in Venice. Thank you for the wonderful videos.
For me, sleep deprivation followed by steep step climbing and then a 7.7 abv brew=catching a really good nap afterward at the very least. 😴 The views from up there looked great! Sorry you took a soak on the excursion. I'm glad you made the best of your day despite that. Great vlog Merideth. 😊
I love the way you see my town from the ship, I can even see my house 😊. If you come back here hit me up and I will show you around everywhere. And we will do the Trollstigen. I was visiting the prima in port today here in Ålesund.
@@christianolsvikalesund6303 thanks so much! I’ll definitely be back someday, I have to see Trollstigen and everything else Ålesund has to offer, such a beautiful place! 🤩
I really enjoy your vlogs I think it’s great you do this solo. I really liked the Antarctica trip. Have you thought of doing an expedition cruise? I’d like to do that but I know it’s pretty expensive.
Good to hear your comments about the ship. Definitely was concerned on why NCL would use Prima for this itinerary. As for Syd Norman’s, it’s quite a gong show with the Fleetwood Mac tribute. Was on the Escape, in line for 45 minutes…near the front…awesome. When they opened the doors everyone who wasn’t in line poured in… didn’t get a seat! Left without seeing the show. 😢🤬
@@1flames952 oh no!!! I’m so sorry to hear that! The Rumours Fleetwood Mac tribute is my absolute favorite show in Syd Norman’s, I hope you get a chance to go back and see it! People can be very pushy 🙁
Thanks for visiting my home town, and yes, it is gorgeous!
Thanks for another fantastic video!
Such a beautiful destination!
@@CityWise_Travels couldn’t agree more! 😊
I like going into a port and just wandering around. Feel you get to know an area more doing that. Glad you got some local beer and a local tour!
It was something I hadn’t done yet on this trip, glad I made the decision to skip the excursion, worked out well! 😊
So beautiful and that sunlight 🤗🥳
Great video Meredith...I love Alesund. 🙂 Cheers!
Me too! Thanks John! 😊
Mer, que puesta de Sol más magnífica.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Sí!! Queremos más vídeos tuyos! Te seguimos desde Barcelona, España 💃🏻💃🏻
Thank you so much! 😊
Thanks again Mer for yet another great video of your adventures at sea. Always a great job

The views are stunning. We were there a week ago! Took a bus up😊

hi, I'm Freyr from Ålesund, I just wanted to say thank you for a nice video from my town. and you are a pretty lady with lovely eyes.
Thank you so much!!
Lovely videos Meredith, great insight on the NCL Prima ,I am also doing a solo cabin cruise on the same schedule next month.
@@neilthomson4740 thanks so much, Neil! Hope you have an amazing cruise! 😊
Un viaje fantástico, Mer, gracias por compartirlo. Te esperamos por Barcelona 😊😊

@@madridfan2007 thank you so much!! Love to hear this 😊 Mediterranean cruises are amazing!
@@MerCruisesSolo thank you but this Norwegian cruise looks awesome…we just got back from an Alaskan cruise so Norway is on our radar.
For me, sleep deprivation followed by steep step climbing and then a 7.7 abv brew=catching a really good nap afterward at the very least. 😴

Sorry you took a soak on the excursion. I'm glad you made the best of your day despite that.
Great vlog Merideth. 😊
@@robk236 spot on, it was a great day! Thanks so much 😊
Nice review of my hometown:)👍
@@ragulves thanks so much! Such a beautiful place 😍

@@Alice-j8x2l thank you so much! Yes, I would LOVE to do an expedition trip, but they are very cost-prohibitive for me right now. One day, though! 😊

Fun name for a beer lol
If anyone happens to pass through Wisconsin, get a "spotted cow"...it's amazing
@@kevincrary6327 oooh will have to look for that one, sounds tasty 😆
@MerCruisesSolo it's only in Wisconsin though
Mer, what month did you take this cruise? I am looking to book it next year. Thanks 😊
@@luvtravel6207 this was at the end of May! Exact dates were May 23 - June 2 😊
In Norway you can drink water directly from the tap. No need to pay for water.
@@minlillemusikkboks that’s great! good info to know! 😊
Why do you look so tired?
@@wenli8883 I explain this in detail in the video 😂
She may have met somebody onboard.
