[quote name='innlady1'][FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3]No one...but no one...does it like CD Carlos Mendoza currently on the Maasdam. :rolleyes: In his infamous shrill voice, he shouts (with every announcement he makes)..."Wash your hands...wash you hands...wash your hands!!! :eek:[/SIZE][/FONT]

[SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]:rolleyes: Eye rolls all around from the passengers....:rolleyes: [/FONT][/SIZE][/quote]

[SIZE=4][COLOR=darkred]We had him on the Statendam, for a month and when he left to go home we really did missed his , 'wash your hands....wash your hands......and yes we rolled our eyes. He was great and would love to cruise with him again.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

Kinda interesting to watch the safety drill (muster) on the Veendam from our room. Lots of colors... Running late.

Do you know which Capt. will be on Volendam in Oct/Nov?

Tall windows on those big aft balconies - still wouldn't get me on her though.

I'd go, only if cruise was free and I had a good balcony in a good location and got to eat in a specialty restaurant and the shore excursions were free and Carnival paid my air fare.:)

Thank you. We came across Pacific with him last year. We are booked for around Australia later this year.:)

Well, must get to my Blue & Gold and miss the Veendam. Ironically, it looks like my next sailaway will be the Veendam May 1.

Thanks for the thread, Chief and for the webcams, Lou and Dave.

And when that happens, the Miami River will be deep enough to dock a retired HAL vessel in downtown Dayton, Ohio.

LOL!!!
