Danish Boat Cruise

Easter Break

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone had a very relaxing Easter break. For people in Norway Easter break started on Thursday. I’m not sure why workers in Norway get the extra day off, but with a 5-day weekend ahead I wasn’t complaining. It was really quiet around the apartment over the weekend as all my flat mates left for their hometowns to visit friends and family.

Many people here in Norway (mostly foreigners), have told me that a Norwegian experience experience the one-day cruise from Oslo to Demark and then back to Oslo. is not complete with a party on a Danish Boat Cruise. So I decided to take the leap andOther trainees that are also working in Oslo accompanied me so we were a group of nine. The boat left Oslo at 8pm and arrived in Denmark at 8am the next day, and then arrived back in Oslo at 7pm that night.

The boat was an actual cruise ship filled with families and retired couples enjoying the trip. We were probably the only ones there to party. The best part about this cruise is probably the duty free shop. Alcohol was actually NORMAL price compared to the Norwegian price of alcohol. Each of us stocked up on duty free beer and alcohol before the evening got started

After a trip to duty free, we then headed to Viktor’s cabin for a pre party. Viktor, who is a very proud Ukrainian, was celebrating his 23rd birthday and brought along Ukrainian vodka. Now I’m no expert on vodka or anything, but this was the best vodka I have ever had. In fact, I think I enjoyed it a little too much ☺. Then we headed to the bar on the ship and too be quite honest I don’t remember much after that. The next morning was a little interesting because a hang over mixed with a moving boat is not that great. The boat traveled overnight and we arrived in Denmark at 8am. The shipped docked for 2 hours to let some people off and let some people board. The original plan was to get off the boat and take a few pictures in Denmark, however, we all slept through. It was a cool thing to experience and I would surely go again.

On the way back from Denmark, I took some pretty cool pictures in the Oslo fjord so check them out. The Norwegian landscape is truly beautiful.

That’s it for now, have a great weekend everyone!

GO SENS GO!!
