gillybean1974 Posted November 5, 2010 #1 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Hi I just wanted to thank all the HAL posters on here for all their insight, reviews and information posted . I found this site has the best information out of all the websites out there! I had been looking around for information before I booked our 1st family cruise to Alaska, we were initially going to book Disney but after reading these boards we changed to booking to the Volendam (and saved a little money too). My hubby and I met in Alaska while working on the Celebrity Mercury in '98, so excited to be going back to Alaska as a passenger this time! Thanks again guys, didn't know what thread to reply to to thank you all so I just started a new thread (hope that's ok for a newbie) Gillian :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope when you make your trip on the Volendam that you have a great cruise. The Voledam is a lovely ship. I know that Celebrity does not go into Glacier Bay and I just love Glacier Bay. I hope it is a wonderful cruise for you and your hubby. By the way, welcome to the Cruise Critic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob brown Posted November 6, 2010 #12 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Welcome to Cruise Critic and to the HAL board! To take advantage of more of what CC is about, may I suggest that you join the roll call for your cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillybean1974 Posted November 7, 2010 Author #14 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Thanks so much for the warm welcome! :) Haven't seen a 'roll call' yet but were not going till August, will check back a while before we go. 10 months away but already browsing for formal wear, lol. I'll be sure to take lots of pics and write a review (a good one I hope). And for those of you setting sail in the near future, Bon Voyage!
