Sea Day

 So on day 4 we have our only sea day. A day to sleep in and worry over what we will eat. Today we spent time getting some sun by sitting on the balcony. We also checked out the jacuzzi that is in the spa area. It was amazing. Lots of bubbles and warm enough. 

Have attended some port talks and guest lectures. They actually have a nutritionist on board.  She is fairly basic in her presentation although she did bring up that the UK has begun to embrace the Nordic diet.  Apparently this type of diet is rivaling the Mediterranean diet.  Fish twice a week and one of the choices must be an oily fish. The rest is similar although they use canola oil over olive oil. All grains must be whole grain and they recommend “fermented vegetables”. Like sauerkraut. 

There has been night entertainment in the theater. So far a magician and Abba tribute. Lots of the axillary personnel like the lecturers and entertainment come from the UK. It seems Viking must have done a big recruitment.

Tomorrow we do an all day trip to Malbrok Castle which was home to the Teutonic Knights from the 1200’s.
