Ship tip
NCL is a great cruise line i am sure they will get things in order
Be careful in the spa they will try to high pressure sales at end of treatment and be aware there is gratuity added already my wife made the mistake of not knowing that and way over tipped
Bicycle yes rent a bike and definitely go across the river to the military base where you can see the submarine it is beautiful there, then ride through free-mans land Christiana interesting not like it use to be more of a town now
Catherine's palace was beautiful and it makes you appreciate the divide between the rich and poor which i think is still going on.
everything we past on the way was utilitarian run down nothing quaint
great city to wonder, we went to churches and other historical sites but ended up in the mall which we promptly got lost and came one in a whole different area so getting back took a little bit longer
we did not go into Stockholm we stayed in the town close to the ship, i see you could get on the train right there and there were lots of them
We ate at the Kroken by the boats it was awesome all local workers were there having lunch too that was a good sign
walked off with luggage 7 am fast easy but they are correct taxi's are limited, the first round of 20 or so were gone when we got there but one arrived shortly after ,,, he was however 15 bucks more than the gut who brought us there ???? cost 60 on way in and 75 back
Sorry new phone just signed back on added 3 new cruise
The Baltic was cold but I went in pool everyday heated I was alone worst part was getting out to get another drink wait staff was hiding inside
