dot73 Posted April 5, 2016 #179 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Beautiful pictures. Thank you. Let's keep the accolades coming so that more pictures are posted.:D Seeing the images in a large format really gives you a good idea of what the ship looks like. I can't wait to see the MDR in its full glory. I love it already and I know I won't be disappointed in December. I just wish I had booked an earlier one.

vinonme2 Posted April 5, 2016 #180 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Thank you so very much for all the Koningsdam pictures, they are wonderful! Have you seen the library or know where it's located? I can't seem to find it on the deck plan and it's one of the first places I usually go to. I can't wait to sail on this beautiful ship! Looking forward to more of your posts!

catl331 Posted April 5, 2016 #181 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) ... the library or know where it's located? I can't seem to find it on the deck plan It's in the Explorations Cafe/Crow's Nest area (deck 12 forward), just like on the two Signature ships and all Vistas except the Noordam. http://www.hollandamerica.com/main/DeckPlansFull.action?ship=ko&deck=o&deep=0 Edited April 5, 2016 by catl331 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donaldsc Posted April 6, 2016 #187 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Where does HAL get those hideous carpets? Are they all close-out bargains? :D:eek: They are designed so they do not show dirt or stains. They have the same type of carpets in casinos in Las Vegas. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karennella Posted April 6, 2016 #188 Share Posted April 6, 2016 It looks like a big RSL club in Sydney. Or one of our casinos too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheWASide Posted April 6, 2016 Author #189 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Did you enjoy tamarind? Can you have sushi and the other dishes or one or the other? Tamarind was amazing as always. Between the soup, appetizer and sushi sections you can pick 2 of the 3 [emoji2] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristiano Posted April 6, 2016 #190 Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) It looks like a big RSL club in Sydney. Or one of our casinos too. Apart from the last 3 years I have lived in Sydney all my life and never seen an RSL or even the 'Star' that quite would resemble the Koningsdam :confused: None of those take you anywhere like the Koningsdam will.:) I for one think that she is quite beautiful with a few minor design flaws but as said in a previous post they are for stability and fuel economy. All you need to do is see her entering Venice from the air last Sunday ! Ciao, Cristiano. Edited April 6, 2016 by Cristiano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of questions: Are they seeking your feedback or do you think they are ready to go as is? Is your cabin deck 4 or 5? Which would be "better" primarily thinking about the lifeboats? Do you get the feeling they will offer some dine around packages or just leave it as is? Thanks again and keep the photos coming! [emoji7] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again and keep the photos coming! [emoji7] They always seek feedback. That said I think everything will go off without a hitch for those on 4/8. We are on deck 5. Here's a view looking forward from my room. 5 definitely better. Not sure on dine around but with so many choices I bet it would be very popular!

InTheWASide Posted April 6, 2016 Author #197 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Tonight is Canaletto. And the captain said we'll be passing Stromboli. Pub crawl later this evening. For the most part, as I understand at least, the lifeboat tops come about even with the railings give or take a couple inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL has always defined "unobstructed" as if you stand up and walk to your balcony railing can you look straight out without anything in your way. I can see if I know anyone staying in deck 4 but don't believe I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From these angles it looks as it deck 4 has unobstructed views: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
