If one leaves the World Stage towards the aft on Deck 3, you must run the gauntlet through the smoke of the casino. Such a disappointment. HAL, get with the times!

Rare Btimmer Posted December 17, 2018 Author #156 Share Posted December 17, 2018 We just had an hour and a half presentation on the history of HAL by Captain Albert. Fantastic! He receding a standing ovation and should be considered a national treasure of HAL. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Btimmer Posted December 17, 2018 Author #157 Share Posted December 17, 2018 While at the front desk for the umteenth time to correct billing errors I spotted this new Christmas decoration in the Dutch Cafe. It has two trains and multiple houses. Then I had to have some Dutch pea soup & fries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Btimmer Posted December 18, 2018 Author #169 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Earlier today was the 'Ask the Captain' session and Captain de Boer gave a wonderful presentation assisted by his Hotel Director, Don. Then this evening we were serenaded by a lovely sunset across the flat seascape. As this segment comes to a close, thanks for your questions and comments. I look forward to meeting some of you over the coming 4 days. And, yes the blog and the pictures will continue. We have some adventures planned. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
