Sailaways_ Posted January 20, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Are the pools on HAL saltwater or fresh water? Specifically wondering about the Westerdam, if that matters. What kind of food is served in the Explorations cafe, and what hours is it open? Is there a charge for anything (other than the specialty coffees)? I'm envisioning something similar to Cova on X and the International Cafe on Princess, with danishes, sandwiches, and desserts. Is this right? TIA guys! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best to ask and be sure. Front Office will either know or can find out. 2) Small pastries primarily but there may be additional selection. Hours will be posted in the Daily Program. Not as elaborate as the International Cafe selections PCL offers but pretty impressive and tasty stuff (Not familiar with X, sorry). On Westerdam, also keep in mind there are 2 coffee stations. One right by the shops and the big interactive map. The other up on top adjacent to the Crow's Nest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that each ship only has the mechanisms for fresh water or only for salt water. either way, I'll find out! P.S. I have to tell you, I love following your blog and your Twitter. You do an awesome job for all of us ship lovers, so thanks! :) Can I have your job? </kidding!> </sortof!> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
