| Viking Sky |
Well, we’ve been at sea for four days, so thought I would
do an update on our ship. Most know
Viking for their river trips, long flat boats carrying 150-200 passengers,
doing mostly European rivers. Well, recently
they entered the “Cruise” ship market, with five active ships operating and 10
planned. These ships are smaller, ie;
950 passengers vrs the larger cruise ships in the 3-4,000 passenger range,

| Theater |
Also, the
Viking included amenities are considerable.
Their passenger to crew ratio is
2:1 vrs the larger cruise ships 3:1.
Pampered, but not to the point of irritation. Also things like included Spa, steam room, sauna,
hot tubs, Thermal pool, fitness center, outdoor deck pool, and believe it or not a “snow room”. Also, wine is served freely at lunch and
dinner, and I don’t mean a glass or two.
It’s pretty much all you want.
Good quality as well. No abuses
noted.
The theater is a masterpiece with individual
swivel chairs as well as bench seating.
Good views from anywhere.
Numerous educational programs throughout the day.

| Casual Reading Area |
Dining of
course abundant with three private seating restaurants at no extra cost, (one
fine dining), room service no charge, and of course the traditional cruise ship
buffet. All food has been very good.
 |
| Piano Entertainment |
All rooms
outside balcony, no inside rooms. Heated
bathroom floors if wanted. Large king size
beds. Large flat size TV with 24/7
programing, news, movies, etc., no charge. Free WIFI throughout ship.
Bottom line,
we feel best cruise ship ever been on.
