Has anyone here taken the "cruises" from Stockholm to Helsinki?

If so, thoughts?
Wife and I are going to do both with our two 2-6 yr old kids. |
Date: June 20th, 2016 3:22 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich I took the overnight ferry from Stockholm to Helsinki once. What are your Q's? Also if you want to be uncomfortable the entire time, please read: http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2004/05/a-sea-story/302940/ (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748370) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:30 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich The boat is still pretty TTT, none of the cabins are "nice" and it's a short crossing, so I'd say go with the cheapest. During summer the sun never dips below the horizon, it comes right down to the horizon somewhere between 2-4am an then goes back up. It's worth staying up and watching. I think a lot of people take these overnights just to gamble and booze. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748429) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:33 PM Author: Mustard spectacular library thanks. That was my thought too.
Would you do it again?
Shit, I thought the sun went down for a few hours....that is going to be weird. |
|
Date: June 20th, 2016 3:34 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich I wouldn't do it again, the flight is under an hour. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748452) |
|
Date: June 20th, 2016 3:36 PM Author: Mustard spectacular library I meant, would you do it again if you hadn't before? Seems like a beautiful way to see the area, no? We will certainly fly back to Stockholm from St. Petersburg. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748468) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:36 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich I suppose it's worth doing once, but really for so much of the journey it's close to dark outside and there's nothing to see. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748472) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:40 PM Author: Mustard spectacular library we are going in two weeks. Isn't it light almost the entire time? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748508) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:42 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich By "light" I mean it's not fully night time dark on the water, it won't be like as bright as day the whole time. Last time I was in Stockholm in late June the sun would be back up by around 3am and it felt like it could be noon. It's weird walking out of a bar before last call and feeling like it could be midday. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748519) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 3:46 PM Author: Cerebral wild brunch sandwich Be glad you're not going in winter. I remember walking around Stockholm at like 330pm and wondering why all these kids were out at midnight since it was pitch black, then realizing it was mid-afternoon and they were on their way home from school. I didn't see the sun for like 10 days. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748551) |

Date: June 20th, 2016 4:29 PM Author: Beta gunner abode Great article. I suppose everyone feels like they would be one of the "driven" people who has what it takes to survive but obviously not. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3260900&forum_id=2#30748883) |
