Day 22 Our anniversary

Thursday, November 24, 2022

What a great day. Thanksgiving and our anniversary! Jim was feeling better and was released from quarantine!

We started the day with Norwegian pancakes as we cruised toward Komodo National Park. Once we had anchored, we took the tender ashore to see the Komodo dragons. Luckily we were safe, on an elevated walkway. One of our guides carried a forked long stick, in case a snake happened along. Back on board after our morning excursion, we went swimming in the Infiniti pool and had lunch around the corner from the pool, in the shade.

We had dinner reservations for the Chef’s Table restaurant. The menu changes every 3 to 4 days and it was an Asian themes menu, including Peking duck.

Viking had given us a bottle of sparkling wine for our anniversary when we had boarded the ship in Bangkok. We received a 2nd bottle on our anniversary.

I love sitting in the Explorer’s lounge, in the bow on the 7th level. They have reindeer furs on the backs of the leather sofas. So soft and comfy!
They have Norwegian waffles with sour cream, Norwegian brown cheese, and berries. We gilded the lily with real maple syrup! Yum.

This adult male was a bit too piggy. He ate a whole deer, the antlers got stuck in his throat, and he died. What big ferocious teeth!
Glad we were on an elevated walkway. This Komodo dragon could not get us.
Our launch dropped us off and picked us up at this dock
Beautiful scenery
I love hanging out in the Explorer’s Lounge with the reindeer furs.
