Good luck! We'll be on a Holland America cruise through Indonesia in January. Don't think I'm looking forward to the visa process! And there's some kind of arrival paperwork to do for Singapore. Ugh! But cruising is worth it!

Have you checked to see if you can get the visa while on the ship? I think it was on a Holland America post that I saw where the visa could be obtained through the ship.

Thanks to all for the kind words on the loss of my grade school friend. I did find out he had CJD which shows signs of dementia but is an always fatal brain disease.- 100 replies

And I’m afraid I have to report another sad dementia death. A good friend from grade school/ top graduate of my high school class, has succumbed to a fast onset dementia. A blessing that he and his family didn’t have to suffer through his particular diagnosis.- 80 replies

I think you can call the general Holland America customer service phone number and they will connect you with the correct department.
-
Have you called to see about getting the new package? Might be worth it or maybe you’d lose more than you’d gain.

2024 Grand World Voyage with The Inside Cabin
SusieKIslandGirl replied to The-Inside-Cabin's topic in Holland America Line
@oakridgerI'm with you. I hate the napkin waving. I can imagine all the crumbs and germs flying around the room. YUCK! I also agree about the Carnival ships-that was surprising to see. -

@Denise TSimilar situation but ended better. I was preheating the oven, went to the bedroom to take a load of laundry in to fold later, and came back to find smoke coming from the oven. Somehow, a potholder had fallen into the oven earlier and was smoldering on the element. No flames but a lot of smoke. I tossed the potholder in the sink and turned the fans on. Definitely changed batteries in the smoke alarm since it never turned on.- 103 replies

@57redbird Here's what's in my back .. I had no neuro symptoms. I thought you had mixed up your x-rays with DH.😊 But then realized that his shows bars on either side of 3 vertebrae. Wild what medicine can do! And so far, he doesn't set off the scanner at the airport. Happy to hear recovery is going well.- 89 replies

DH will agree about the chowder. I make geoduck chowder, after he’s been digging the ‘ducks, which beats most all chowders. And I enjoy the plain potato/bacon soup.
-
Yep, my father wondered where I came from🤣. Born and raised right here-even living in the same house I grew up in.
-
DH has had it twice. He's decided that next time he will ask for the salmon to be served separately-he didn't care for it being in the broth. After he ordered, I went to the Lido and found what I wanted to eat so we ate together, and I didn't have to eat smelly seafood! And he always had a small piece of corn on the cob.

Transportation Vancouver BC to Seattle

We had friends who rented a car. Border crossing was much easier than on the bus. -
Our last 3 cruises have had t-shirts, but rarely did they represent the cruise we were on.

I want to add my thanks for your update and wonderful news of chasing cancer away. Good friend from school has been free of his lymphoma for nearly 20 years! Can't wait for trivia questions!

We're looking to do the same thing in November. The train looks doable. Venice is the last stop, from what I can tell.

@StLouisCruisersSandi, I was so excited when I read that your Trusted Traveler had been renewed so quickly. I did our renewals last Sunday and just checked. Ours are still pending. When I first looked at the page, it showed approved but then I noticed that it was for the last renewal and not this one. At least the card is still good while pending. -

In addition to the moon rising over the water, we love watching the ships heading to the port of Tacoma and the planes on the runway at SeaTac. But I will watch out for any drones 😜.- 70 replies

@kazuJacqui, how did you get a photo from our front window. 😂 The moon, trees and water are almost identical! My DF had nightmares for years-his Army unit arrived the day after Nordhausen was found. He had a few photos that we saw years later. I still cry thinking about both the camp and his experience.- 70 replies
