Discovering the Luxurious Viking Octantis: My Memorable Great Lakes Cruise Experience
I’m a staunchly anti-morning person, but there I was, stumbling out of the shower at 5 a.m. Along with a few other early risers aboardViking Octantis, I was up on Deck 7 soon after sunrise to watch the launch of a weather balloon. As we floated along Georgian Bay, on the Ontario side of Lake Huron, our group counted down and then marveled as the radiosonde-toting balloon whizzed into the sky. Then we hustled down to Expedition Central, the chart room on Deck 2, to watch weather data come through in real time.
