That was my thought too.

I dont know if you guys care or not but I enjoy to see the sunrise and sunset. Every morning on each of the cruises ive taken in the past 10 or so years I get up about 5:30 a.m(yes i'm an early bird) while my wife and kids are still asleep, put on my robe and just sit on my balcony in the pitch black of morning to catch the first glimpse of the sun peek out from behind the ocean (if im on the right side of the ship, if not I go up to the top decks)and watch they sky illuminate. In the evenings I try to see the sunset-if im not partying of course.
Ernie, Bcscot you're right, its a HAL Vista.

On my-most recent Saga Pearl II cruise to Norway, we went "way up North" to 69 40 Lat. (Tromso). We were too late in the season for the midnight Sun. In the hours. I guess. between 2300 and 0100, there were beautiful "Midnight Sunsets" which were shortly followed by "Midnight Sunrises."
The colors were beautiful, and as we sailed South, as appropriate elements of North Norway's spectacular coastal geography were positioned against the ever-changing colorful sky.

On the way to Rorvik aboard Richard With (Hurtigruten) (sorry - this is during the winter - no midnight sun).

5:30 am is time to go to bed, not get out of bed.

Must be on of the large, modern sailing vessels giving the stack (I can barely make out the masts). Giving the shape my guess is Windsurf (ex Club Med 1) or Club Med 2.
BTW - Here is a short video clip on a sail away party aboard Club Med 1 while the sun is setting.

Nothing better than watching the sun rising after partying through the whole night.
