- Skjolden our second port of call .After sailing through the Sognefjord Fjord, the longest in Norway we arrived at Skjolden .
Set my alarm to get up early so I could film the stunning scenery from the balcony .
We chose to go on an excursion with Princess Cruises to the Jostedal Glacier .This was about an hour journey with a couple of stops for photos .It was a rotten day as far as the weather was concerned ,but didn't spoil the view of the many water falls on route .
A large part of the Glacier has receded and we did not get to see much of it from our view point .We then visited the centre for some coffee and toilet breaks .All in all an ok excursion , not the best but it was great to see some more of the beautiful scenery.
Another lovely outfit pearl.
Hi Marecia, thank you very much . That was a dress Pearl wore for our daughters wedding . So it is stuck in the wardrobe and doesn’t see the light of day. So I was glad she bought it with her . Thanks for watching as always.
Beautiful scenery ❤ how wonderful even In the rain . I think we will have to add this cruise to our list . Good link, Brian, from on the balcony saying stunning view to this stunning view of Pearl ✨️ wow what a dress orange satin amazing Pearl . 😍 take care both of you ❤️ A&Jxx
Thanks Amanda , have only just seen this comment. Yes I’m a tight smooth operator 🤣😂 she did look good though.Xx❤️👋
Norway is sto stunning regardless of the weather. Pearl you looked absolutely stunning, that dress is beautiful and the colour really suits you.
Hi Rachel , your right Norway is stunning even in the rain . Every way you turn there is something beautiful to see . Pearl said thank you again for your comments on her dress , said she is very flattered. Thanks again for watching our vlogs .
Pearl looks fabulous again.
Hi Amanda , that is so nice of you to say . Pearl really appreciates the lovely comments she has been getting. Take care and thank you for watching.
Nice scenery at the end and great music to accompany it.
Cheers Marc , it was so hard to narrow down what scenery to put in , as you know there is so much to choose from .👍
And another ticked off, looked like a lovely excursion. Beautiful scenery I agree absolutely love Norway but it always rains when we’ve been!
Well done Mandy , it's like being in an Olympic event getting through these videos 😂 . Stunning scenery , but yes it does tend to be rather wet . It was great to get to the Glacier but would have liked to have got a bit closer . Thanks as always Mandy XX❤️
another fab vid. Pearl, you have some lovely evening dresses, I'm green with envy!!
Thanks Glenda , I always tell her she looks lovely in her evening dresses. She said to thank you for the lovely compliment. Although she said those dresses will have to appear again . Thanks for watching.
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 and why not wear them again, they are classy and timeless, they should be worn again and again. However, when you've had enough of them Pearl, give me first dibs!
@glendahill Pearl said she certainly will 😂 .
This was beautiful! Love the scenery, and your field trip was awesome. I think the weather made it all the more beautiful. I enjoy seeing what you all eat as well. This trip looks like it was so much fun! Stay well!
Hi Rene , your right the weather did give the scenery a different look , especially the low clouds. It was good to see the Glacier although we couldn’t get very close . Food on this trip has been very nice , although I can never remember what I’ve ordered. Hope you are keeping well , take care look forward to your message next week. X
Good show guys. Makes me want to book again for Norway!
Hi guys thank you , as you know the scenery is amazing even in that weather. Go for it we have not until 2025 though. Thanks as always 👋
I reckon we are going to go for 2025! Caribbean awaits us first! 😃
How nice , lovely to have things to look forward to 👋
Great video👍😎
Thank you very much , and thanks for watching 👍👍
I do love watching your videos,fast becoming my favourite TH-camrs.Pearl always looks very stylish,even in the rain!
Would love to meet you both on a cruise,you both seem to have a fantastic time.
Hi Suzanne , that’s very kind of you really glad you enjoy them . Pearl will be very flattered with those comments. Your right we do enjoy ourselves we try and have as much fun as possible and not take things to serious. We are doing a few cruises next year so you never know 😄. Thanks again for watching and taking time to comment.
Hello to pearl and Brian.
Another great vlog.we didn't get to visit good spirits but definitely will on next cruise.
Your excursion looked a good one too.
Hi Alan & Sharon thanks guys, good spirits is a great bar although hard to get a seat sometimes. Hope you both have a good week, take care and thanks for watching. 👋
Hi Alan & Sharon hope you are both well , were just about hanging on to some half decent weather. Olden on Sunday, have the ear plugs at the ready for Sail away. 😀
@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 Hello to pearl and Brian.
How are you both?
Looks like the good weather has finally deserted us.
We hope you are having a great weekend.
Allan and Sharon.
Pearl looking on 🔥
Hi guys, yeah she did look hot 🥵 I don’t think she was having one of her flushes 😂
Back from our week on Sky Princess so catching up with the vlogs - entertaining as ever 😅
Hi Martin , hopefully you had a great time on Sky Princess. Thanks very much for catching up wit the vlogs , much appreciated. 👋
Pearl you look stunning
Hi Kathy , awe that’s very kind of you thank you very much . Pearl will be really flattered. Thanks for watching.
Fab video, really enjoy watching, they make me laugh 😊 just got back off sky princess and had a fantastic time, could never get a seat in any of venue's except the theatre, I'm sure people camped there all day 🤣 would love to go to Norway next year, looks stunning.
Hi Neil , that’s very kind thank you . Glad you enjoyed Sky Princess it is a fantastic ship . Your right about finding seats especially in the atrium, you always see people loitering and hovering waiting for someone to get up 😂 Definitely do the Fjords on Sky it’s fantastic even in the rain . Thanks again for watching.👋
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 ha ha yes ,that's what we found ,people hovering waiting to pounce for the seat🤣 in your opinion which ship do you think would be better for the Fjords , sky princess or iona ? Many thanks 🚢
@neilwilliams4184 Hi Neil , I think Princess is probably a bit more up market. But the atrium on Iona is bigger, and all glass so you will always have great views . That is why we have booked to go back in 2025 on Iona .Hope this helps .
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 Fab, thanks for the advice, might have to try p&o then .
We look forward to your Vlogs each week! Thank you, we think you are both very good, comical and real 😊
Hi Guys, how kind thank you . We really do try to be ourselves and are glad it comes across. Thank you very much for watching . 👋
Entertaining as always . Not sure if it was us by the sound wasn’t great on this one .
Hi Hazel, thank you very much and appreciate you watching. Apologies for sound we did have some bother with the microphone, I don’t know if it was from the rain and so couldn’t use them all the time . I will have to tell Pearl to speak up . 😄
Hi folks, we did this cruise in July and the weather was just as bad. Even the locals were moaning about the rain. I guess their summer is shorter than ours so they have the right to moan.
Wife wants to know where Pearl buys her dresses? 😇
Hi Richard, yeah it wasn’t the best weather but the scenery was still beautiful. When we went up the cable car in Olden we couldn’t see a thing because of fog . Now as for dresses I’ve been informed Wallis , Debenhams when it was about , and good old charity shops , where I always encourage her to go for the sake of my wallet 😂. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching. 👋
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 I’ll swap experiences in Olden 😂 Wife was literally sick in the street a mile from the ship. Slow walk back and then we had to isolate in our cabin for 36 hours. Yeah.. I’d have put up with the rain over that. Not our best cruise
Debenhams are greatly missed. Next time you’re in Southampton check out the Affordable wedding dress shop upstairs in the main shopping mall in town. Wife’s favourite shop.. 🤦🏻♂️
@richardparmenter188 That sounds awful, maybe ours wasn’t that bad after all . A lot of germs do seem to go around cruise ships .36 hours in your cabin 😩 . I will pass the dress information on , thank your wife . We are getting ready for the Caribbean at the moment another couple of weeks then hopefully sun and rum punches 👋
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 Amazing. Will look out for your blogs.
We’re off to the Canaries again in 6 weeks. Literally counting the days now
That's brilliant , isn't it nice to have some sunshine and heat just around the corner . Hope you have a fantastic time .
