Dave,

Thanks for the pictures, etc. We're thinking of booking the Ryndam for

Norway, etc. July 24 for 2 weeks. How does the ship look? She's one of the older ones and I love to know how she's doing.

Thanks to everyone for the helpful info. I think that I can take it from here and pick 2 winners.:D

A lot (in terms of rate) depends on when you are going. I wrote reviews on Trip Advisor for the Hotel Wilton ($75US/night) in Buenos Aires and the Hotel Orly ($110US/night) in Santiago. I would recommend both unless you are looking for 5 star fancy.

Sounds reasonable, I'll check them out right now. Thanks for the info.

We have never been to South America and need some help on pre and post cruise hotels in Santiago and Buenos Aries. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

We need some help with this one.

HAL booked us into cabin 2702 which is designated as handicapped. We are not handicapped. If someone joins the cruise and needs this cabin, we'll gladly move - we're on the Volendam, March 13th.
