You are very welcome!
I never thought i would be so lucky to catch them both in Rhodes AND in the north of Norway.

Then you were very lucky, indeed... so much the better!

About to years ago I took some photos of her sister Princess Danae here at Hamburg. And as far as I know she has never again visited Hamburg since then.
Hope to see Ocean Monarch, too, one day to complete the family photo! :-D

Yeah, this summer was a bonanza for old cruisers. Princess Danae was a really big treat, at tjeldsund-bridge, that was magic...
