Lots of beaches and snorkeling. Hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed living it!

Great review.

Loved how you did each day separately.

Pictures were fantastic.

Thanks for sharing your blog! My husband and I are on the Kdam in March, with the same itinerary as you had, so it was fun to get a preview of the ship and ports. We love to snorkel too, so I especially enjoyed all of your fish photos. Well done!

Thank you! Made us even more excited for our cruise on Kdam!

Just wanted to thank you for your outstanding report.

GREAT PHOTOS....

WOW!

I've just started and spent a long, enjoyable time looking at the first section, the photos of the ship. This is an outstanding collection, one I will come back to. You must have spent half the cruise with your camera! Really appreciate the time and effort you have put into this. Now, onto the commentary pages...

Loved reading your blog and the way you did it. Enjoyed seeing all the photos too. We also love to snorkel but certainly not as knowledgeable about the types of fish as you are!

 

Thanks for sharing.

Very organized and nice blog. Loved the pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for all the pics of K-dam as we'll be on it next Nov.! You're pics & blog are better than anything I've been able to find on it at this point!

 

As a "heads up" on the Bonaire pic of sailing ship, it's the Royal Clipper. We were on it about 15 yrs. ago & have a link to it on signature section.

 

Again, super photos & now we're really looking forward to traveling on a HAL ship bigger than Vista class!

Thanks for the terrific pictures. We will be on her in July. Yours showed the most areas of the ship that I have seen

We were also on this cruise and one day we shared the pier with the Nieuw Amsterdam. These two ships looked to be almost exactly the same size, but of course the interior arrangements are very different and the Koningsdam holds more passengers.

Thanks so much for your report and all of the fabulous photos! We were on this itinerary on November 13, but our rainout day was Aruba! We thoroughly enjoyed the Koningsdam. Since it was ou first HAL cruise, we had no idea what to expect. Its just a beautiful ship!!

[lorisch]

We were also on this sailing with you. It's fun to see your pictures and relive the cruise. I think I remember seeing you on the ship. We heard complaints from a few people about different aspects of the cruise, but thought it was all in all a pretty good cruise.:)

Thanks for the review, great photos. We will be in HMC & Amber Cove in Jan so I got some ideas about what to do there.

I was also on the same cruise. I found the Koningsdam to be a little different from what I am used to on HAL ships. I also recall the Vista ships were quite a bit different than the R and S class ships but we got used to it. I hear that HAL is making some changes on the Nieuw Statendam which will come out in 2018 and I loo forward to it. By the way The World Stage is outstanding.

In Amber Cove we took the ship's tour to the downtown area (to see the plaza and a small church) and to a small fort. It was a waste of time and money ($30) IMO.

[flying fingers]

I'm taking this same trip in March and after reading your blog I am so look excited! This will be my second HAL cruise and I really like what this ship has to offer.

Awesome job on the blog! Loved the pics!

 

Has someone done something similar of the Oosterdam? Loved to see something like your blog. Leaving on the 30th of December. :)
