Spotted from a distance en route from the airport, in a low-rise Reykjavik, Prima presents an imposing sight as it is temporarily one of the tallest structures, competing in height with Hallgrímskirkja, the city's 74-metre Lutheran church which confidently thrusts skywards like a perpetually stalled rocket above the city. Katy Perry, the Norwegian Prima's godmother, performs on board.
Katy and Orlando aside, there's much to consume the cruise tragics and converts on this voyage, especially since for many, this represents our first voyage for two and a half years, thanks to you-know-what. This is where the 129,274 tonne Norwegian Prima awaits me and a few thousand other passengers with Reykjavik being the starting point of a week-long cruise to Amsterdam in The Netherlands, with calls to Cork, Ireland, Portland in England and Le Havre, France.īut right now all those places seem like afterthoughts after having landed in this (ice) bucket list destination. It's difficult to comprehend that I'm arriving in a country with a population that is smaller than that of the ACT, considering Iceland's cultural weight and its global notoriety for arresting landscapes.
