Prompt Politics

In Seydisfjordur, the weather reverted to cold and damp but this did not deter TSH and Diva from taking a short walk around the town. As this is their 3rd visit of the cruise, they are becoming quite familiar with it. Some tourists from the USA (from Silver Spirit or Viking Mars) stopped them as they walked and asked where they might find a coffee bar. It then took about a minute and a half for the Americans to express dismay with the state of US politics. They seem to be seriously considering emigrating to the UK.

Back on board Silver Spirit, Diva is experiencing the usual trouble with her suite card becoming regularly demagnetised, in spite of care to keep it away from her phone.

The crew are as attentive as ever and beginning to remember what drinks TSH and Diva have. One afternoon, they brought Diva a cup of hot water because the last time that waiter served her she had decided to supply her own tea bag (she always carries a few for variety).

They overheard a group of American women asking a waiter what beer they should drink. He suggested Budweiser, Heineken or a new one – Newcastle Brown (!!). They tried all three and seemed quite impressed with the NB.
