IRL_Joanie Posted December 9, 2010 Author #576 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Ok, That makes us both feel better. It would seem odd if the chair or a scooter user was unable to utilize the rest of the cabin, and the balcony! I can hear you now... Knock, knock... "Hello, you don't know me, however, could I please photograph your cabin?" (I'd be the one who says, "Sure, why not!") Thanks again!! IF there is no ramp out to the verandah, go to the front desk and ask them to have a ramp placed (or even built) so that you can access the verandah. I asked nicely for one and they built it in an hours time:) I needed it so 2 of our CC members in wheelchairs could access our verandah. Wonderful response to Handicap needs in my opinion:) Photos of the stateroom are coming I promise!! Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRL_Joanie Posted December 9, 2010 Author #577 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Just an FYI, thanks to several CC members I've uploaded new Stateroom and Ship photos for the following ships in the last 2 days: Eurodam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Oosterdam, Prinsendam and Westerdam. http://joanjett2000.topcities.com/HAL/ and here http://www.abqreunion2008.com/ Joanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANDY111 Posted December 12, 2010 #578 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Hi We are looking at cabin VA7095 or VA7097 on the Westerdam. I am trying to find out if the balconies above can see down into our balcony. Does anyone know? Also my research shows the rear is slightly less bouncy and deck 7 is a very good deck. Mostly we are concerned that we have some privacy on our deck and there is not to much noise. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly we are concerned that we have some privacy on our deck and there is not to much noise. thanks Don't know if this helps, but we were on this ship this past Oct. & were in 6105, a great room & view. Only problem was we could hear the flaps on the life / tender boats flapping & banging after a tender,( they did not secure them well enough).

IRL_Joanie Posted December 12, 2010 Author #582 Share Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) HiWe are looking at cabin VA7095 or VA7097 on the Westerdam.

Mostly we are concerned that we have some privacy on our deck and there is not to much noise. thanks I cannot find any photo looking from any verandahs on any of the vistas looking down from deck 8. The best I can do is a photo taken from a sister ship, the Zuiderdam taken from one of the Penthouses that shows that deck 8 overhangs deck 7, which means they will not be able to look directly down onto deck 7. http://joanjett2000.topcities.com/HAL/Zuiderdam/SB-7088-3_Iowa-Cruiser.jpg You are located mid ship which is one of the best places for less motion. I've been in that general area on both on deck 8 and further aft and never had a single problem with bounce/motion.

I have my stateroom photos up and running. Got them up yesterday. Posted to my thread last night that they were up and running, but it is buried:) I have just finished working on the ship photos and will post them tomorrow. Other photos are on my WebShots album here: http://community.webshots.com/user/IRLJoanie I do have to work on cropping my Sunset photos so they do not bounce around when I make a movie of them.

tea4ular Posted December 28, 2010 #592 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Me again...the "kids" (our D & my H's personal care attendant) have just been assigned cabin 5144 (Oosterdam), a sweet upgrade for their guarantee booking. Anyone have any information regarding this cabin? Pictures, balcony detail (metal vs see through), etc. In advance I thank you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any information regarding this cabin? Pictures, balcony detail (metal vs see through), etc. In advance I thank you all! Hey there tea4ular, while I do not have photos of Oosterdam's VC 5144, I do have photos of a very very comparable VC 5157 on Zuiderdam. It should look almost exact, just different furnishings and slightly more to the aft of the ship and opposite side.

nowornever Posted January 5, 2011 #598 Share Posted January 5, 2011 are worse than I suspected! Pathetic would probably be more descriptive. I've just discovered this website & have been furiously searching for photos of the Westerdam. When I click on the link to photos, all I get are the "generic" ones from the HAL website decriptions of the various cabins. HELP....I'm looking for Westerdam SY photos since we just booked the Hawaii & S.Sea Islands for this coming Sept/Oct. From the brochure & website, it looks very spacious but "real people" photos would be even better. We're 6066 specifically so if you can help guide me to the correct links, that would be very much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
