[@raincoast9010]

Covid is just the distraction, while we struggle with masks or not, vaxx or not, employment or not our elected officials and bureaucrats behind the curtain are quietly removing our private property rights, our right to travel, our right to assemble, banning protest, our ability to use cash money and bringing in digital id and digital currency and now seizing peoples bank accounts. TOTAL ENSLAVEMENT ! Until the people wake up and you impact the World Economic Forum affiliated politicians and big businesses that run government and are supporting and driving the lock downs, nothing is going to change. The World Economic Forum, the United Nations UN Agenda 2030 and government controlled media are our biggest threats. Covid is the mechanism by which they are destroying the middle class and private/mom and pop businesses. Many of our government officials including Federal MP Chrystia Freeland, Conseritive Michelle 'Pronouns' Rempel, Federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh and BC Premier John Horgan (and i am sure there are many more) are affiliated with the World Economic Forum (you will own nothing and be happy). What little democracy we have left is in the process of being subverted. Our elections are supposed to "feel" organic and grassroots but these people are groomed and then presented for us to "elect" and then they magically do the opposite of what we want them to do. They are going to tax you out of your car with $10 a litre gas and force you to live in their smart cities, when will you say ENOUGH?! The whole idea is to print money till they destroy people's savings through low interest and high inflation and collapse the dollar and bring in a one world digital currency, add to that more crushing debt for our grand kids to never be able to pay off. All that is required for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.“ Edmund Burke [“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.”] An evil enemy will burn his own nation to the ground to rule over the ashes.' - Sun Tzu The government will tax you to the point that you are paralyzed financially. The bankers will ensure we stay in debt. The pharmaceutical companies will ensure we stay sick. The weapons manufacturers will ensure we keep going to war. The media will ensure we are prevented from knowing the truth. The government will ensure that all of this is done legally.

I ran straight away to check the price of such a trip. The cheapest version I've found $74,320 per 2 people (1 room). Well, what a motivation to work harder to be able to afford such a cruise. It looks truly amazing! I love how you're discovering such adventures and sharing those with us!

That’s what I was going to do too, but decided to look in the comments first. That’s expensive and probably why the ship seemed empty.

i'm honestly so in awe of your relationship, you can tell that you guys are just as in love with each other and enjoy each other's company now as when you first started

[@sciscitatio]

Just a clarification for those that might be unaware: When he said "It does not get dark up here, ever...". Within the Arctic circle, and the Antarctic circle, the phenomenon of Midnight sun occurs. This means that the sun does not set below the horizon for at least once every year, per the definition of midnight sun. Directly on the poles, the duration of the midnight sun lasts for pretty much half a year. The downside of the seemingly ever lasting sun in the Polar circles, is that when half a year goes by, the opposite Pole circle wants its share of the sun. After 6 months of everlasting sun, the phenomenon of "Polar night" occurs. This is the complete opposite, and means that the sun never rises above the horizon. No real daylight, for 6 months straight.

[@ChrisJones-ff1dx]

Glad we've cleared that one up.

My dad used to work in boat construction and a few times he was able to bring one of those liferafts home (12:55). We would put it in the garden in summer and fill it up with water. So we had our private pool with a 'roof' over it. After a while the roof would rip, so we took it off and treat the sides as trampolines and jump against the pole in the middle. It's an amazing memory I have from my youth. My dad passed away a few years ago and I still miss him very much. Thank you for bringing up this amazing memory of him.

I personally did some work with the NOAA over an icecap and just so you guys know: Ice sheets like these come seasonally and get replenished very often. The issue is not these sheets of ice but the actual thousands of year old of ice in Both Ice Bergs, Glaciers, and Ice Caps. Those would be extremely dangerous if they keep melting. Ships like these barely make a dent on environmental damage apart from the CO2 emissions. If anything we should definitely be the change by every individual being more conscious and by actually supporting non profits that help keep the environment preserved!

Wowww, this is literally a dream! Visiting the Arctic & Antarctica are some of my top top bucket list trips, so I would absolutely love to do this... Although in a melting world, I do wonder what the implications are of breaking all that ice just for tourists to visit.. I'd be interested to find out what if any offsetting the company does, and if there are any downsides of this type of travel.

[@Amy-ts9bk]

The ice breaking had me on the same train of thought. I did appreciate that they are bringing scientists in addition to tourists, and was curious if the scientists would have had the funding to make the trip without the tourist effort. However ever since the arctic trip i have wondered how much tourism affects polar ice melt, as i did not realize it was such a big industry before. This is not me saying that K&N are doing anything explicitly wrong by participating, more so that they have made me aware of the industry and that it is bigger than i had any previous conceptions of, and that has made me curious about the environmental ramifications of such trips.

[@alexgrz7682]

The breaking of the ice has no real impact as it reforms alpost directly behind the ship. As for what the company does is respect very strict rules for the safeguarging (look up iatto) and create the most efficient ships they can. source I worked on the Charcot (this ship)

[@mckay24ful]

Oh please. Give me a break. Just enjoy the damn video and keep your opinions to yourself.

[@benjaminjo5430]

​@@mckay24ful What bothers me is this exuberant extremely "excited" way to experience the luxury of such a cruise in an extremely sensitive ecosystem. I think it's totally ok that they do this and share the impressions. However, it would be more than desirable if they address geographic factors, environmental vulnerability and changes due to climate change. I know their mission is not to explain the environment there - but that is part of a trip to the Arctic. Especially when so many people are watching these videos, they have a lot of potential to create awareness of the issues that affect the region and ultimately the world. That's what I would like to see.

Same here, I’m more interested in traveling to Antarctica. Because It’s so isolated from humans, as well as the wildlife. I love penguins, which also kinda inspired my username. As well as whales, seals, orcas, Aurora Australis (not wildlife but cool thing to mention). This comment got way to long for me but just know that Antarctica is on my top travel lists.

Midnight sun must be the beautiful thing on the planet, I swear, the look of the sun hitting the ice perfectly and the bluest skies

[@RenataPereiraTV]

Your Antarctica series was fantastic, I’m already sure this will equally blow my mind 🤩

[@haylesaswiftie1989]

You guys never fail to make amazing videos

Brilliant and amazing I am so excited to watch this series of videos. It just looks so wonderful! I should also say thank you as I have followed you from the beginning but I have never commented. You have brought so much knowledge, joy and fun to all your followers.

Kara I loved your faux Scandinavian accent! And…this is a bucket list trip! But wow. Just looked at the price. Thank you to Swoop & Ponant for hosting you, and you two for having a channel that enables us vicariously travel to the North Pole.

The ship is amazing! I love that it’s eco-friendly but modern 💕 Sooooo looking forward to this series!

[@sakinastraveldiary4562]

Absolutely love Nate and him explaining things ❤

[@Joshuastem5622]

This is like a Crate & Barrel cruise ship. Love it.

[@Nina-856]

I love Kara’s energy in this video. It’s so positive and made the video fun. I have always enjoyed the content that you guys put out. The quality is amazing in all your videos. Your videos make me so happy and grateful about life. Thank you so much for creating and sharing these videos!

[@sandrabestenbreur5103]

This was so cool! Literally a dream 😍 can’t wait to see the rest of this series 💖

[@zuldo8577]

For anyone wondering, prices at this ship for this trip start at 42 000 dollars! Have fun.

[@ofmsetest]

three thousounds of comments and no one else talk about the actual price, it's out of reach for 99% of people on planet, how naive are youtube viewers

[@skyboor4305]

I just saw an ad about you and now I find your video you earned yourself a new subscriber

[@RhondaInProgress]

We've been wanting to go on a cruise for some time, after watching this my husband say we have to take this one. I am all for it! You guys make everything look like the best thing ever.

[@Kmini408]

what is cruise called

[@RhondaInProgress]

@@Kmini408 Le Commendant Charcot

[@sarshar9614]

This looks amazing! I hope the ship is more eco friendly than it looks, considering how quickly the polar ice is melting. Also, they’d better have arranged for you to meet with Santa while you’re up there! It’d be so disappointing to go to the North Pole and NOT meet Santa

[@joccee88]

Eco friendly, north pole and cruise are words that does not work togheter. Cruises are not anywhere near eco friendly

[@mombarden2335]

Santa resides in North Pole, Alaska!! I’ve seen him there!!!

[@graceraven3423]

I'd assume seeing that the water bottles were reusable and they didn't want anything plastic on the ship, all of the heat is recycled, and they have scientists aboard to get two places the otherwise wouldn't be able to get to, that the ship works hard to try to be eco neutral, even though with ships tech and how business works it's probably not 100%

[@yesiamsmrt]

Apparently from their website, the ship has the latest designs to eliminate pollution and equally importantly doesn’t dump any waste into the sea while traveling, with most of it being recovered.

[@bertilfugels2238]

It can run on MGO or LNG GAS, and also has battery packs installed. So in calm seas it can run fairly economical, but it has 35 megawatts of propulsion, so it will of course burn some fuel during ice breaking maneuvering. The company I work for designed and built this ship, I've spent somewhat around 1000 hrs on board during commissioning and Sea Trials, its a beautiful vessel😊👍
