This is the weirdest tradition at sea? 🌊 DAY 20 - Crossing the equator ceremony We have never seen madness like this... Apparently, when you cross the equator for the first time on a cruise, there is a maritime tradition known as the “Neptune Day” ceremony. Here’s what you should know 👇🏼 - ‘Pollywogs’ are passengers and crew who are crossing the equator for the very first time - ‘King Neptune’ (in our case, performer Nick), will grace you with their presence - Pollywogs are initiated/sacrificed (I actually have no idea what was happening) by getting food/slime/water thrown on them and in come cases they need to kiss a fish On the Spirit, those participating had a dollop of cream and a bucket of water over the nogging. We’re sharing our first ever norwegiancruiseline cruise where we will be sailing to some of the most beautiful islands on earth 🌺 FOLLOW theinfrequentflyers to learn all about the GOOD, the BAD and the UGLY of cruising (from first time cruisers) #crossingtheequator #equator #cruisetradition #cruisevlog #cruisenorwegian
