    The Caribbean Princess is special to me also. Had my first balcony on her when she was still brand new. Almost 20 years ago. Used to cruise with my best friend of 50 years. Lost him to cancer last year. I have the Utopia booked in November .. but I will be solo. Cruise 24. Enjoy your friendship Tony and Don. It'll be a memory one day.

      Sorry for your loss. I am happy you will still cruise on your own, your friend will be happy that you are still cruising and you will forever have him still with you as you travel ❤❤❤

    One of my favourite things about cruising is waking up and seeing what the port looks like. I am always in awe

    Aw, i recognize the waterfall at the beginning of your video and that you can see from the cruise ship! We also saw a baby seal by the whale tail statue. We went a year ago. Have a great cruise!

    When we arrived there May 16, 2023 it was snowing but we were really for it. Everything look like it was black and white. We stayed over night so we got to see a lot more.The second day the sun came out and it was different kind of beautiful.

    OK...now I am sold...as soon as we get a Tony and Don walking and immersing and discovering together vibe...no strength to narrow destinations due to living in colder climates...it is all wonderfu travel lit fodder and yes yes yes. The culture looks so clean and lovely, Sea and fresh rain when 50 and above is not ab at all...hands are not begging for gloves. You two are the best and it is so great to share a cruising friendship like this. Every video like this one is a mini vacation...so grateful...thank you.

    I bought a pair of socks while on a tour out of Reykjavik. They were 8500 Icelandic kroner. Which is about $20 usd. Prices were nuts there. But they did have cute puffins on them.

    We took a Holland America cruise out of Boston, up Maine, Canada, Greenland, circumvented Iceland and back to Greenland, St. Pierre and back to Canada and Maine and back to Boston. 25 days. And it was marvelous.

    Hopefully the visit to Akureyri was pleasant.
    Here is some information.
    The street with the art museum, these buildings were used for industry. "Ketilhús" housed a large steam boiler and the steam was used in the houses above where dairy products were processed.
    The Blue House (which is now a cafe), this building had 3 shops. There was a gift/toy store on the left and a thrift store on the right. On the floor above was a shop that sold materials for sewing.

    FYI Icelanders do not have official "last names": they have patronymics. such as Samuel's if your father's name is Samuel or Sigridsdottir if your mother's name is Sigrid.

    I was on Sky Princess last month and also went to Godafuss Falls and the botanical gardens, as well as time spent wandering the town. It was my second time there, with a gorgeous day the previous visit and most of the townspeople out enjoying activities in the main square you showed. It was quieter this time on a cooler day, but is still one of my favourite ports. I look forward to seeing your upcoming posts of this cruise, as well as Don's posts. It is fun seeing places you know and re-visiting my trip through your eyes. Thanks so much!

    Back in 2018 our transatlantic cruise was supposed to spend one day in Akureyri. But there were some very rough seas, so we ended up spending 3 days there (along with 3 other ships) since it is such a sheltered port. We had a planned excursion to Godafoss one day, but the other two days we just walked around the city. Such a lovely place (the church, the botanical garden, the waterfront, the traffic lights where the red lights are heart-shaped, etc) - and we found a great bakery cafe that had free WiFi.

    Just a note for anyone going to Iceland....Their pharmacies have very limited drugs. Most things that we (in the US) consider over-the-counter, they need a prescription for. For example, cold medicine, Ibuprofen.....
    I am doing these ports next year so am enjoying the preview! Thanks Tony!

    Caribbean Princess is our favorite ship. We love it for warm weather cruises because Skywalkers provides shade for the aft pool which is less crowded than the main pools. We also love that they have left the Wheelhouse bar as a nice uncrowded place to have a drink and listen to some live music. Emerald Princess took a lot of Wheelhouse and put in casual dining.

That beautiful just needs a Dimond International and then it would be fully complete. Cant wait to see more of your adventure....
