This was in my Mexican Riviera photos from 2014. I’ve never been to Bermuda. Whose flag is being flown? Costa Rica. Entering Puntarenas I realised that is probably an incorrect answer as my mind omitted Mexican Riviera cruise.

I told my DH that if anybody could guess correctly from that angle, it would be you. We were extremely lucky to have such a clear day when we took the harbor and canal cruise there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the Ryndam, the Noordam was one we did not think we'd sail on again. Then in 2002 and 2004, we had a chance to to a TA, plus other cruises added on, out of Tampa. We ended up licking the ship a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never been to the Mexican Riviera but I know I’ve seen this before. Maybe. If the painting was on the Veendam at that time I suppose it could be a photo of the painting.. It’s been 6 years since we took this cruise and the photo is in our photo stream between those photos I posted later. We took a land and sea excursion that day so I thought it could have been taken then. Interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave I remember that shore-side gangway and the opening into the terminal. The ship - also Amsterdam - had to stop on a dime to get it all to fit in place, kinda like Quebec City, Seward and Vancouver 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
