ORIANA has made recently her first appearance in the Norwegian fjords under her new colours, and in the image she is seen leaving Bergen bound for her homeport of Southampton.
At present she is on her way to Norway again, on a 14 day cruise calling in Tromso, Alta, Bergen and Stavanger.
Although the famous northern lights, which occur frequently at this time of the year in the northern regions of Norway, are surely the main attraction of this itinerary, yesterday its passengers were lucky enough to witness another phenomenon, a total solar eclipse onboard ORIANA, as she called in the port of Thorshavn (Faroe Islands) which, alongwith the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, were the two only places in the World where it was possible to see this rare event in whole.

"As with her cherished namesake and her sister the sacred CANBERRA, old acquaintance will be more than enough to ensure that whenever the great ships of Britain are brought to mind, another ORIANA shall now never be forgot."
