Sisimiut (Holsteinsborg), Grönland
-
-
Sisimiut is Greenland’s second-largest town, and large by Greenland standards, housing some 6,000 people. It is located just north of the Arctic Circle, and is a popular base for visitors seeking adventurous pastimes in the surrounding country. Although there are no shore excursions planned for Sisimiut, guests may wish to investigate the local market, where the products of the country are sold, including meat from whales, reindeer, musk oxen and many kinds of fish. Watch for the stocky little Icelandic horses trotting along the highways, and keep an eye out for sea eagles often seen perched on the surrounding mountains. Whales are also often seen in the sea nearby. On the hill above the harbor, there is an artisan’s workshop where they create and sell Inuit crafts, and nearby is the town museum, which has examples of colonial period houses, peat houses and other early buildings.

Ilulissat (Jakobshavn), Grönland
-
-
Located in Disco Bay, Ilulissat is home to Sermeq Kujalleq, the fastest-moving glacier in the world. This tremendous river of ice flows from the Greenland Ice Shield toward the sea, funneling through a narrow opening at nearly 40 meters a day. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is the “Mother of Icebergs” that fills its fjord and the bay with great quantities of floating icebergs that parade down the bay and into the Atlantic Ocean. No formal excursions are planned for the town, which is home to about 4,600 people and some 3,500 sled dogs.

In October, 1941 the United States Army Air Force constructed an airbase at the site of Kangerlussuaq. It served as a refuelling stop for single-engine military aircraft being flown to Britain during World War II. Form their last port of call, Goose Bay, Labrador, it was 1,600 kilometers (1,000 miles) to Kangerlussuaq until they could refuel. Kangerlussuaq fjord (‘Big Fjord’), is 170 kilometers (105 miles) long and was often shrouded in fog, providing a serious navigation problem for those aircrews. Today, with the use of modern technology, navigation is no longer an issue. The landscape was ideal for the site of an airport. A large alluvial plain, deposited by the nearby glacial-outflow river, provided a perfectly flat environment for an airport. Kangerlussuaq is the largest commercial airport in Greenland and supports a population of 500. A little known fact, from 1971 to 1987, 33 missiles from various countries, were fired from Kangerlussuaq for upper atmospheric scientific research.

Monumental Island
-
-
Montserrat is a mountainous Caribbean island, part of the Lesser Antilles chain and a British Overseas Territory. Its Soufrière Hills volcano erupted in the 1990s, causing significant damage to the south of the island and leading to the creation of an exclusion zone. The north of the island is largely unaffected, and has black-sand beaches, coral reefs, cliffs and shoreline caves.

L‘Anse aux Meadows, Neufundland, Kanada
-
-
Located at the most northerly tip of Newfoundland, L‘Anse aux Meadows is nestled near the fishing village of St. Anthony. It is the site of the first European settlement in the New World, approximately 500 years before Columbus‘ arrival. Other Norse groups had relocated from their homelands to the New World. In 1961, explorer and writer Helge Instad discovered a group of large mounds in the countryside. These mounds were excavated revealing the remains of a Norse settlement. This site became L‘Anse aux Meadows National Historic Park in 1977 and is noted on the UNESCO World Heritage List of important cultural properties. The site at L‘Anse aux Meadows has been completely excavated allowing visitors to see the remains of the homes, a smithy, and various worksheds. The park‘s interpretive center displays Norse artifacts from the excavation which include iron rivets, a flywheel and the floorboard of a boat. Researchers still debate as to whether the site at L‘Anse aux Meadows is Leif Eriksson‘s ‘Vinland,‘ a lush, beautiful area where he settled in for the winter around the year 1000. Parks Canada will greet you on disembarking the ship and you may explore at leisure this first settlement of the New World.

St. John's, Antigua

“St. John’s is de hoofdstad van Antigua en Barbuda, en heeft een bevolking van meer dan 20.000 mensen. Deze bloeiende en opwindende stad is de belangrijkste haven van Antigua en fungeert als het commerciële centrum voor het hele land. Verscholen in een zak aan de noordwestkust van Antigua, strekt de stad zich uit over iets meer dan zes kilometer in alle richtingen. Zelfs de grootste cruiseschepen kunnen midden in de haven aanmeren vanwege de ruime halvemaanvormige lagune en de diepe kustwateren. De binnenstad heeft een aantal toeristische trekpleisters, waaronder historische en artistieke musea, evenals een aantal likeurstokerijen. De skyline van de stad wordt gedomineerd door adembenemende kapellen, een vuurtoren en een behoorlijk aantal oude forten. Leuke winkeltjes, restaurants en cafés langs de drukke straten, samen met grootse architectonische huizen die tot bijna perfectie zijn gerestaureerd. Saint John’s heeft ook 365 stranden, één voor elke dag van het jaar!
-De Sint-Janskathedraal dateert uit 1683, toen het een eenvoudige houten kapel was. Tegenwoordig is het een prachtig decoratief bouwwerk met barokke torens.
-Verken Betty’s Hope, een suikerplantage die voor het eerst werd gesticht in 1674. De eenvoudige stenen windmolenstructuur staat als een monument voor de slaven die de plantage honderden jaren heeft uitgebuit en mishandeld.
-Old Fort James werd in de 17e eeuw door de Britten gebouwd om de haven te beschermen tegen indringers. Tegenwoordig is het een goede wandeltocht waarbij bezoekers vaak overweldigd worden door de indrukwekkend grote kanonnen.
-Het wonderbaarlijk moderne Museum van Antigua en Barbuda is een groot landgoed dat zijn bezoekers door de lange en kleurrijke geschiedenis van het hele Caribische gebied leidt.”
