Another Missed Port-Reykjavik, Iceland

September 8th

Today we were supposed to stop in Reykjavik, Iceland.  The morning was sunny so I was pretty confident that everything would go as planned.  As we neared the shore, the Captain came over the intercom and said that the winds were gusting to over 30 knots at the entrance to the bay.  We were then put in to a holding pattern and the captain did make a few other attempts to enter the port.  At about 4PM, he finally made the decision to cancel the stop…..

As you can see from the pictures, it was not a very good day.  Apparently, the weather that has gone up the East Coast is now out in the North Atlantic raising havoc on us.  I really should have known better as the weather in the North Atlantic is always unpredictable at this time of the year.  At least the ship is riding pretty stable. 

All in all, we are having a good time…just wish the weather was better.
