Live Report: Suddenly, I’m Going to Norway!
bennybear replied to *Miss G*'s topic in Holland America Line
Or what damage they can do to you? Norway is the most expensive place I have visited 🤷♀️ -
We spent 23 nights on the Koningsdam and totally enjoyed it. We were concerned after so many negative comments but found her beautiful and spacious. The stateroom MAY have been slightly smaller, but it was very well laid out with a huge shower and wonderful balcony. I honestly noticed no difference. @Tampa GirlI am confused about your comment that the promenade is not 360 degrees. It is narrower in places but you can easily walk all around, unlike Princess where you have to go inside and out of the Royal.

Good morning and thanks all! @StLouisCruisers gentle hugs, that is so much loss, glad you have some good to celebrate as well. @dfish ooh that meal would be such a treat for me! @Seasick Sailor I love blue cheeses, DH not so much, so when he enjoyed morbiere I was excited until I found out it was ash! We have thoroughly enjoyed visiting Newfoundland but not yet Cornerbrook. Hoping @JazzyV knee is starting to heal! And wishing for less foot pain for @kazu @marshhawksorry to hear Fawn is still missing. Please make sure you are getting enough rest, so important for recovery. I hadn’t heard that name, just bachelor buttons. Love how the bees and butterflies love them! we had a lovely visitor, how fun that @cat shepard is seeing them too!- 81 replies

Good morning and thanks all! I did sleep in, so a little late. Thanks Sandi, Lenda, Fred, Tony, Jacqui and all for the awesome photos of Dover, and area. We arrived there by hovercraft from France many years ago and were awestruck by the cliffs. We almost visited Canterbury, but did Winchester cathedral instead so nice to see the photos! The warhorse memorial is exquisite, and I want to check out those secret tunnels! A few more blooms, I love foxglove!- 84 replies

@dfish make sure you test the colours with your actual paint colours, and on the door. The other colours and location can have a huge impact. Perhaps paint a large square of cardboard, to try it out on the door. On my monitor it looks quite bright orange and raspberry. I know you want it to pop, but you might want to test a more burnt orange and darker cranberry too. Just my two cents. I hate picking paint colours, DS usually helps me!- 105 replies

@RMLincoln bless you! It is very scary, we’ve had a couple of towns destroyed before and people evacuated for months. Hopefully rain here and hopefully soon in the maritimes will help. @smitty34877 I’m glad you could cope. I do think it’s good to be home, but I think hospitals try to download care on families a bit too quickly for sure. The nurse I have checking on me couldn’t believe that I was sent home when I was. @tupper10 oh too bad, they have one of the best Chinese and Japanese outside Asia. But they also have excellent Italian and seafood among others. Ask for Luigi is Michelin rated and wonderful. Not to mention outstanding vegetarian at Acorn. So many places really!- 90 replies

How wonderful, I adore Simon and Garfunkel. We spent a lot of time in Vancouver as DS lived there for 7 years, they have many wonderful Asian eateries as well. Happy to suggest those if you’re interested? @Cruzin Terri since they cancelled, they should be obligated to rebook you. Stand your ground.- 90 replies

Rabbit, rabbit rabbit! Need all the luck we can get! One of the Alberta fires is larger than the city of Red Deer, so they’re evacuating more people. We have firefighters from New Zealand and Australia helping, thank you! We’re having slight amounts of rain, and there was a tornado near our RV lot. A few more spring blossoms.- 90 replies
