Balmoral, Northern Europe

5

Good cruise to Scandinavia. Almost midnight sun -- wonderful (much better than Northern Lights which are at best disappointing).

Scandinavia is great between April and September. Sail along fjords on long summer evenings in a very mild climate.

If you go in the winter it is freezing. Forget the Northern Lights. It's all marketing hype. The summers are incredible.

Go on a small ship if you want to visit Naeroyfjjord -- the narrowest and best! Balmoral can get half way (still very worthwhile), but if you can go in the Braemar which can sail right to the end. This makesbgorba splendid summer evening.
