Trauma in Trondheim

Ultimate humiliation for TSH. He walked around the pleasant city of Trondheim taking pics with Diva's smartphone. Which he doesn't really know how to operate.

His brand new Nikon SLR has developed a fault with the SD card reader, which he is fairly sure is a hardware problem. It will be fixed under guarantee on return to UK but in the meantime he is extremely unhappy.  He has cancelled his solo bird watching trip but is still going to the glacier.

The weather was deteriorating so they cancelled outdoor pizza in favour of a civilised meal in the Atlantides restaurant. Turbot - the king of fish according to Chef.

Next morning at breakfast there were a number of incidents in La Terrazza becasue of the choppy sea. Many items were fastened down but plates crashed to the floor and a guest was heard to remark  that cruises are so expensive because the cruise lines need to pay for the breakages. A massive orchid on a corridor fell over and a group of officers worked to clean it all up.

TSH and Diva have tablets and wristbands and attitude. No problems for them.

Overheard in Trondheim from a guest waiting to get on the shuttle bus which had just arrived to take people back to the ship: 'It's already full'. Yes, with people who had just travelled from the ship to the city centre and were about to get off.
