The Viking Sea Ship Christening 2016

I wonder if this was the only song they sang?

So far 3 songs they sung are known: 'Orinoco Flow', 'Sanctus' and 'What a Wonderful World'.

I found a video! On Facebook! By typing in "Libera Viking Sea"! FDL, I sit at your feet. I thank you, O Master of Internet Delving, for your wise instruction.

Of course, the video was taken with a potato, but it is clearly "A Wonderful World." I wonder if this was the only song they sang? (Sorry, it won't embed, even with switching the site from Youtube to FB. )

hahaha, thanks for such undeserved compliments

Yes, the video quality is quite low, but thankfully it exists

Amanda used her photo vertically, which never helps for recording a video, but mostly it's because she was not in the atrium during the songs. She was seated on the pool area (deck 8 ) and what she recorded is the big screen that displayed libera singing 6 decks beneath

Someone posted her video on YouTube also, but it's so poor in quality it's really not worth linking.

A little something to add to Libera's long line of accomplishments: Ship christening.

(If anyone here knows how to embed videos from FB, go ahead.)

Apparently, the Viking Sea has a snow grotto! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/trave ... emony.html

Wow, thanks for posting. Good idea, Facebook Video! I think there is a way to do it so the video is embedded. I shall take a look into this in a couple of weeks.

Every year that passes, John, you sound more and more like me!

Not phonetically I hope.

HaHa, Banter. Good old harmless banter. I would of jumped in myself, but i have been otherwise engaged.

How do you find these things?! I wish he would have taken a video.

Yes . I too want to learn FDL's ways!

There's no special ways
Just try by yourself and see what can be found on facebook when searching libera "viking sea"

yes, that would be the logical way to do things

It's not hard, just select "Facebook" from the pull-down menu for BBvideo, then change the URL to match the example they give you.

The photo I posted yesterday comes from this video publishes by Viking Cruises, about the 'Viking Sea' christening.

There's a (very) short glimpse of Libera for 2 seconds at 0:43"

I'm very disappointed that Libera did not get a mention, and only a two second picture in this promotional video.

A new photo posted on the Libera facebook page about this event. The caption reads "As half term approaches, some of us sure wish we were on a cruise ship again having a holiday."
