Fish for Equator Crossing Ceremony
Equator Crossing Ceremony Pollywogs lining up on pool deck



All those crossing the equator for the first time on a ship need to change from Pollywogs to Shellbacks by kissing the fish, swimming across the pool and taking a drink of Aquavit, a Scandinavian liqueur. At least 50+ people kissed that fish!! It was quite a production and fun.

Celebrating… …Brazil
Everyone wore… …feathers.
And ate fish!
All of these didn’t happen on the same day! And its not always about food, but what do you expect with 19 chefs!!! So they have fun with a cookoff!

Every Sea day there is a cooking class in the Chef’s Kitchen. I went for the first time and will go again. It’s informative and fun.
