A Tour of the Ship
Introduction

Funnels Looking Aft
Funnels, Looking Aft
Let me begin by saying that this is not a comprehensive tour of the Norway, by any means. It covers maybe 10% of the ship, and is intended only to give you a feel for some of the spaces on board.

The most striking thing about the Norway is the way she feels. Ships built for cruising are short and wide, and stacked high with fat upper decks full of pools and balconies. Like big-bosomed, broad-hipped old dowagers. But the Norway was once an ocean liner, and she's long and narrow and low, with long, straight passages. When you're on other cruise ships, it's like you're at a resort that happens to be floating, but would be just the same if it were sitting on land. When you're on the Norway, you feel like you're on a ship!
