You can also look forward to discovering a number of wonderful Norwegian Christmas traditions along the way. If you’ve time, take a walk alongside or atop the iconic white cliffs of Dover that have become a symbol for England. One of the best places to do so is at St. Margaret’s Bay which offers great views of the chalky coastline from its wide shingle beach. Once on board the ship, you’ll pick up your complimentary expedition jacket, settle into your cabin, and attend a mandatory safety drill. When the ship sets sail, stretch your sea legs and get to know MS Maud, your cosy home away from home. Take in the sea air out on deck or watch the world go by from the panoramic Explorer Lounge and Bar, maybe together with a relaxing glass of wine? Your Christmas and New Year’s adventure to the Arctic is officially underway! After the first of many delicious dinners and a welcome toast by the Captain, you’ll meet your expert Expedition Team. They are your knowledgeable lecturers, warm hosts, and good-natured guides throughout your journey. Many grew up and live in the places you’ll be visiting and are passionate about sharing their home with you, especially during this special season. First and foremost though, they are there to keep you safe and well. They’ll be making it a priority to run through important health and safety aspects with you and your fellow guests. DAY 2 Destination At Sea Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar This day at sea gives you all the time you need to ease into your journey. You’ll definitely want to start enjoying onboard facilities like the hot tubs, sauna, and indoor gym. The Expedition Team will begin the first in their series of insightful lectures over at the Science Center.

They’ll share their extensive knowledge about the places, Christmas traditions, history, and natural phenomena you are likely to encounter. Our Captain’s goal is to bring us into Egersund the next day, but where wind and waves on the North Sea are involved, nothing can be completely set in stone, especially in the winter season. This is just part and parcel of the expedition experience, adding extra suspense and excitement to your adventure. Norwegians celebrate Christmas on the 24th rather than the 25th of December. This means that today, the 23rd is Lille Juleaften or Christmas Eve in Norway. Each family has its own traditions; some might weave julekurver – heart-shaped paper decorations, others build gingerbread houses, decorate the tree, or eat risengrynsgrøt – a warm rice porridge served with cinnamon, sugar, and butter. Perhaps you’ll even take one of these Norwegian traditions back home with you and make it your own? DAY 3 Destination Egersund Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar We arrive in Egersund in the morning. Today is Christmas for Norwegians so the town is likely to be quiet, meaning we’ll have it all to ourselves. Bask in the magical atmosphere while admiring the rustic wooden houses and narrow streets of the historic town, decked out in festive decorations, fairy lights, and a Christmas tree in the town square. Peruse the many beautifully decorated shops of the pedestrianised town centre. You’ll find homemade products and charming handicrafts, perfect for any last-minute gift-buying. To help keep you warm, cafés will likely be selling hot gløgg (mulled wine) as well as other seasonal snacks. A visit to the local chocolate and ice cream factory is also well worth a visit. There are small windows inside where you can see tasty treats being prepared. Indulge in gourmet chocolate and pick from a range of ice cream flavours. We recommend the pepperkake-is, gingerbread ice cream! You might also have the option of attending a Christmas service and an outdoor choir concert at the local parish church. The white, wooden building was erected in the cruciform style and dates back to 1623. It is Egersund’s oldest standing building. After enjoying the delights of Egersund, you’ll return to the ship in the afternoon. We continue to sail north and later find a place with calm waters to enjoy a traditional Christmas dinner. The menu will be inspired by the same Christmas The information provided in this document is subject to change and may be affected by unforeseen events outside the control of Inspiring Vacations.

It was also the year Hurtigruten was founded. Our chefs will have been busy preparing rich oxtail soup, traditional fish terrine, succulent reindeer with tangy lingonberry marmalade, stewed cloudberries, and kransekake, a Norwegian confectionary made of almonds. Christmas meals are usually washed down with a generous glass (or more) of local akevitt (snaps) and beer. God jul to all! DAY 4 Destination Outside Fjærland Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar It’s Christmas Day morning. Norwegians normally open their gifts after dinner the night before but you might have left yours to unwrap this morning. Share season’s greetings with family and friends or simply admire the scenic winter landscapes as we sail into the longest fjord in Norway, Sognefjorden. Today, we will celebrate nature in all its glory. We plan to cruise deep into the fjord to the tiny hamlet of Fjærland. We will go ashore to discover this idyllic glacier village, where the Sognefjord meets Jostedalsbreen Glacier. This quirky village, home to only 300 residents, has been named the Norwegian Book Town for its 10 second-hand bookshops. These shops are tucked away in charming corners and old buildings, from ferry waiting rooms to stables. Most of these will be closed on Christmas Day but you can get a sense of their charm from outside and even by peeking in through the windows! On the banks of this pretty village, if weather permits, you’ll have the chance to go on a winter hike or kayak in incredible nature with the Expedition Team on an optional excursion. Jostedalsbreen Glacier is the largest glacier on the European continent. It has several smaller glacial arms stretching out in many directions including Bøyabreen and Supphellebreen. Fjærland is the perfect place to learn more from our Expedition Team about how glaciers created the beautiful fjords of Norway. As you enjoy a delicious meal back on board the ship, you can continue to admire the views as we exit the fjord and rejoin the coastal waters. This will certainly be a Christmas to remember.

Many Norwegians head to the slopes to go skiing or sledding. We’ll be spending the day at sea en route to the famous Lofoten Islands and into the Arctic Circle. If you celebrated a little too merrily last night, today will provide you with a day to recover. Relax in the ship’s Explorer Lounge, soak in a hot tub, or take in the scenery out on deck as we sail through Helgeland county. Gaze out over thousands of small isles and pick out the Seven Sisters mountain range and famous Torghatten Mountain with its distinctive natural hole right through its centre.

  • THINKING at the EDGE of the WORLD 12–13 June 2016 Longyearbyen, Svalbard
    THINKING AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD 12–13 June 2016 Longyearbyen, Svalbard Dear Guests, Welcome to Svalbard and ‘Thinking at the Edge of the World’, an international cross-disciplinary conference organ- ized by Northern Norway Art Museum (NNKM) and Office for Contemporary Art Norway (OCA). We are delighted that you have joined us for what we hope will be a truly 12—13 engaging, thought-provoking and rewarding experience together. This is a moment to reflect upon, and perhaps even begin refashioning, some of the central debates of our day – within the arts and beyond. 2016 June June Our programme aims to engage all of you in creative, critical dialogue – forging a collective momentum with which to push, test and extend disciplinary boundaries. Your participation in the debates and discussions we hope to unfold here in Longyearbyen and its surroundings is crucial to this event, which advocates a sharing of perspectives and the genuine exchange – and cross-fertilisation – of multiple and productively disparate points of view. We hope that you will experience as many aspects as possible of the unique environment that is Svalbard today – a landscape of multiple layers and meanings, criss- crossed and shaped by a complex blend of increasingly interconnected geological, biological, technological and political-economic factors. Our schedule and the locations with which we will be engaging attempt to respond to and activate some of these variations in context, scale, time, typology and space. Svalbard and its future are sites of on-going experiment and negotiation. It is precisely this joint spirit of curious investigation and creative mediation that we wish to harness and foster, now and moving forwards, with you.

  • Nasjonsrelaterte Stedsnavn På Svalbard Hvilke Nasjoner Har Satt Flest Spor Etter Seg? NOR-3920
    Nasjonsrelaterte stedsnavn på Svalbard Hvilke nasjoner har satt flest spor etter seg? NOR-3920 Oddvar M. Ulvang Mastergradsoppgave i nordisk språkvitenskap Fakultet for humaniora, samfunnsvitenskap og lærerutdanning Institutt for språkvitenskap Universitetet i Tromsø Høsten 2012 Forord I mitt tidligere liv tilbragte jeg to år som radiotelegrafist (1964-66) og ett år som stasjonssjef (1975-76) ved Isfjord Radio1 på Kapp Linné. Dette er nok bakgrunnen for at jeg valgte å skrive en masteroppgave om stedsnavn på Svalbard. Seks delemner har utgjort halve mastergradsstudiet, og noen av disse førte meg tilbake til arktiske strøk. En semesteroppgave omhandlet Norske skipsnavn2, der noen av navna var av polarskuter. En annen omhandlet Språkmøte på Svalbard3, en sosiolingvistisk studie fra Longyearbyen. Den førte meg tilbake til øygruppen, om ikke fysisk så i hvert fall mentalt. Det samme har denne masteroppgaven gjort. Jeg har også vært student ved Universitetet i Tromsø tidligere. Jeg tok min cand. philol.-grad ved Institutt for historie høsten 2000 med hovedfagsoppgaven Telekommunikasjoner på Spitsbergen 1911-1935. Jeg vil takke veilederen min, professor Gulbrand Alhaug for den flotte oppfølgingen gjennom hele prosessen med denne masteroppgaven om stedsnavn på Svalbard. Han var også min foreleser og veileder da jeg tok mellomfagstillegget i nordisk språk med oppgaven Frå Amarius til Pardis. Manns- og kvinnenavn i Alstahaug og Stamnes 1850-1900.4 Jeg takker også alle andre som på en eller annen måte har hjulpet meg i denne prosessen. Dette gjelder bl.a. Norsk Polarinstitutt, som velvillig lot meg bruke deres database med stedsnavn på Svalbard, men ikke minst vil jeg takke min kjære Anne-Marie for hennes tålmodighet gjennom hele prosessen.
