CRUISING THE PACIFIC OCEAN

This morning's view from the balcony:










The Maersk Line ship is passing us. How mortifying!

While there are many dining spots to choose from on the Viking Sun, Karen and I mostly frequent the World Cafe. It is organized thusly:























Bean-ground espresso, latte, cappuccino, juices, teas, sugars, milk, hot and cold water.



















Sliced ham, salmon, salamis, cheeses, condiments, yogurts, whole and cut fruits, mueslis, congee. Miso soup, sushi and sashimi are available at every dinner. 















Breakfast, lunch and dinner menus change daily and always offer an incredible variety of choices. The food is prepared within sight and delivered immediately so it is hot. And you can eat all you want.
















Breads, toast, pastries, cereals, nuts, fruits, jams, honey, nutella, ice creams and sorbets. 

Not only does the World Cafe offer convenience and variety, but meals take much less time.
Also, its pasta dishes and soups, which change daily, are the best on the ship. From time to time there are theme meals - Indian, Chinese, Mexican and Thai cuisine, lobster, king crab, hamburgers, hot dogs, onion rings, etc. etc. It's always something!

You can gather your own food and drinks, or waiters will do that for you. The waiters also continually offer water, beer, wines and juices at every meal. Or, if you prefer, room service will deliver meals to your room at no charge.

Talk about decadence!



In 1996 Bob D'Eith, who graduated from the University of Victoria, and Paul Schmidt formed the musical group Mythos. Those were the early days of New Age Music. Over the years Mythos won several music awards for their popular and innovative style. This track is called "Ascent".
