“An amazing holiday – one of our best”, was how Gary and June Stratton described their “triple treat” of travel.
On 14 May they departed from Auckland for 10 weeks, which would include a 12-day North Sea cruise on the liner Norwegian Star, a month self-driving in Scotland and England, and a 15-day European river cruise on the Emerald Destiny.
During the sea cruise, the weather was often cold, despite it being early summer, and Gary’s photos of Norway and Iceland showed snow thick on the hills that surrounded the fiords -where their liner berthed for day visits.
