I suppose cruise ship life is 24/7 no matter where you go or what line you sail. But as we headed north, the days got longer and longer. At first it was extended twilight well past 10 pm. The heavy clouds that have accompanied us much of the trip would glow long after sunset. But on our way to Trondheim the clouds started to break up and we saw our first midnight sunset, pictured here. I remember from my year in Sweden that as the summer progressed people seemed to have more and more energy and stay up longer and longer every night. That is certainly true aboard the Veendam. It's wonderful to go out on a deck at midnight or later and stroll in the extended afterglow of the day.
