We ate lunch twice on our recent N. Statendam cruise. It was excellent! Plus there were only 16 passengers booked for the lunches vs +180 passengers for dinner. The PG lunches are so filling that we have a light snack at dinner!

Way back in 2013, we stopped in Funchal. Back then HAL allowed you to bring wine on the ship. We went to a nearby grocery store and there was one aisle with just wine as low as 3 euros per bottle. This one lady had a shopping cart full of wine and bought it back to the ship. She told me it was going to be Christmas gifts!

Wow, what a deal! Compared to costs in parts of the US! To buy an McMuffin in California you might need to see if the restaurant will finance the cost of the McMuffin over a five year term! 😳

Great photos. Chief, I have a simple question. For such a long cruise and stopping at so many ports, how in the world did you plan all these great tours in each port?- 116 replies

Thanks for the Fleet Update and General Info from all contributors! Hemp, Hemp, Hooray! We have been to Trinidad / Tabasco. Once off a HAL ship many years ago. We did a 4-5 hour island tour through HAL which was not on a tour bus but in a cab, room enough for two couples. After two hours into the tour, it was so bad, how bad was it RNB, it was so bad that we paid the cab driver to take us back to the ship. He initially refused to return us early saying that he could get in trouble but we convinced him we would not tell anyone!- 110 replies

Wow. We were just there a few weeks ago and it was also beautiful. No wind, no clouds! But be aware if you rent a clamshell to guard it with your life. We went to have lunch, left a small bag in our lounge chair and when we returned someone had taken over our clamshell. Could I have called them squatters! 😳 Oh, by the way, to rent a clamshell in the future might require you take out a loan. I can remember when HMC opened, clamshells were either free or $9.95 for the day. Last month the rent was $49.95 for the day and in Nov 2024 the price is up to $69.95 per day! And the lounge chairs are free. What a deal!

RNB has been resting for the past couple of weeks and has seen limited action on this hear thread. But as far as the Shamble, it is a senior tournament that moves very slowly! 😀. Is that ok.- 89 replies

Thanks for the Fleet Update and General Info from all contributors! Lineman Day! I was a lineman for the county and I drove the main road. They called me the Redneck lineman and I’m still on the road. Animal crackers. Liked them. I was never an Alabama cracker but we do have Graham cracker on this thread every day! 😀

Ms Crystal. Looks like you did the same tour we did. Liked that steepest railroad track! When we arrived in Sydney, the Iraq War had just started and someone painted in red paint, Peace, not War on the roof of the Opera House!

Just off NS on 3/31/24 at Port Everglades. No specific boarding time. Just show up after noon. We had come off Celebrity Reflection on 3/24/24 and just walked our bags to the NS terminal. Arrived at 9:40 AM, able to check in bags and check in to board. Appeared all HAL agents were ready to receive passengers for checkin. Boarding started at 11 AM!

Thanks for the Fleet Update and General Info. Downtown Aruba on a wet day. When we arrived by boat several years ago Aruba just had 4-6 inches of rain. I put on my snorkel gear and headed to Diamonds International; only store open!- 104 replies
