    It looks amazing

  10. Fantastic quiz. I got them all right and I have never been on a cruise. However, I heard about these cruises all the time when I lived in Riga, Latvia. The ships would come and depart from Riga.

  11. An excellent quiz, dear Anastasia … as you know, I’ve traveled several times across Scandinavia and have been on several times ferry boats … sometimes even all night, and I’m very fond of knowing that I had 8 regular

      • People who live in the Balkans, unfortunately, do not have the money for most of these trips. I can allow myself a holiday in Greece, at the beginning, and at the end of the holiday season, but for such a boat, I do not have enough money. But, I’m glad if someone can afford such a nice trip.

          • The average salary of workers in the Balkans is about 250 euros. If a husband and wife work in the family, they have about 500 euros together. For this money they have to pay bills, buy food, sometimes clothes and shoes, and educate children. Of course, when they get sick, you have to buy a medicine, or go to a wedding, a birthday party. I do not think they even think about a cruiser.For these reasons, our children from the Balkans massively leave their countries and move to the west.Our natality is decreasing, and on the other hand, they are trying to bring us migrants from the East, which nobody wants here. But the world powers have destroyed us, and now they are playing with us. That is why it is most important to have your independence, and not allow others to order in your home.

        • Answering to your last comment, I should say that this very sad situation is also familiar to our country. Maybe, these trips are more available for young people from your country who move to the west. Me & my family met & communicated with such people during our cruise ferries trips.

      • Cruises are fun to be on. I have never been on a cruise since the closest boat ride was aboard the Steam Ship Cristobal from Colon Panama to New Orleans before the ship was sold for scrap at a shipyard in Brownsville Texas several years ago.
