To all -
This was my first cruise ship and she was a neat little beauty. Nicely configured and appointed. Her two younger sisters always looked like super-stretched pencils and they were not the best of sea boats after their mid-section additions. Sun Viking took to the seas like a champ - a smart snappy roller quick to recover before passengers could get "green" - I sure do miss her. Was under the impression that she's once again laid up and for sale. She would make a great Viking Maritime Museum and small hotel in Oslo! Doubt that she could continue sailing nearing forty years of age...
