Our quest to see the NORTHERN LIGHTS on our Alaskan cruise

The research was done. The timing was aligned. The ship was in position. The conditions...well they were challenging. Come see what we were up against in our hunt to catch a glimpse of the aurora borealis on our Carnival Luminosa cruise to Alaska.

If I saw the northern lights… I would do a gentle dance 🕺

@@NogVlog This gentle dance that I would do consists some slow, graceful arm movements that follow the shape of the aurora, plus a few sidesteps and other body movements. I imagine I’m dancing in the way that the northern lights would. This way… I feel like I’m not just watching this celestial show, but I’m part of it. Hope you will be able to dance with Lady Aurora soon 🕺💃

Sorry you didn’t get to the lights, we are hoping we do. Looking forward to the pizza for supper when onboard in Sept. there is always a queue.😋

[@NogVlog]

Gotta book another one to try again, right? 😉 And yes, pizza was great!

I saw the northern lights! What color were they on May 10th?

I've heard better versions of Proud Mary at Karaoke night. This cruise looked like it totally sucked. Night at 2pm? Do you still call it night when it's 2pm in the afternoon? I guess if it's dark but it still seems like it should be called afternoon. Too bad you didn't get to see the Northern Lights they are amazing, we get to see them here in WI every once in awhile.

Read this a few times and still don't understand the 2pm question. The video content takes place from 9pm to 2am Alaskan time. Help me understand, Mr. Buttz 🤷‍♂️

@@NogVlog I listened to the video several times and I swear she says "The best time to see the Northern Lights is tonight about 2pm" I turned on the cc and it said 2am but it still sounds like 2pm to me, I don't know maybe it's her accent? It's not real clear but it still sounded like 2pm to me.
