you'll see in the shows:
Sweden
Sweden is a natural-born beauty,
winning us over with luxuriant landscapes and sleek Scandinavian style. We
cruise through Stockholms sun-dappled archipelago, visit a designer hotel and
sip cocktails in the trendy Ice Bar (a lounge built completely of
ice!). We stroll through the Karl Milles sculpture garden, and
admire the worlds best-preserved 17th century warship, the
Vasa. Then its off to the woodsy Kingdom of Crystal where we peek in on
Swedens best glass artists and get rowdy at a traditional herring dinner.
We pay tribute to a grand medieval castle once called the key to Sweden.
Then we escape to the vacation island of land, an out-of-the-way charmer with
timeless windmills, ancient ruins and glorious sand
beaches.

Norway
The grand panoramas of Norway prove irresistible to
adventurers. In Oslo, we see testaments to
maritime prowess in Viking Ships and the celebrated Kon Tiki raft. We Scream with painter
Edvard Munch before heading south to the glorious
vistas of Telemark country. After dropping by the home of
playwright Henrik Ibsen, were off to a boisterous
celebration of Norwegian village life, complete with
traditional costumes, dancing and potato pancakes. Next its a ride on Europes most spectacular railway and a boat cruise
through the impossibly beautiful scenery of the fjords. We end up in Bergen, Norways
best-preserved medieval city, taking in views that inspired composer Edvard
Grieg.
