Maybe that ship is recommended in the community 🤔 it sure seems to be popular.

I hope all goes well 🙏

Thanks for the Photos and Videos 🙂

For any that are taking this cruise in the future, both the Coffee Talks with Kristen and Main Stage presentations are well worth your time.  Videos coming from both of this mornings.

I’m at the Crows Nest now and sitting at the bar. This is on the top of the counter. 
 

 

It’s the first thing I’ve seen mention of anything Mardi Gras.

Seas are much calmer today.  My room steward said he’s been working the ships for 9 years and never got sick from the seas until last night.  
 

We had a great lunch in the Pinnacle Grill and then went to watercolor class .  Here’s my jellyfish.

Interesting just that the Koningsdam does not do the New Orleans to Caribbean routes .Then it just looks like advertising . Neat Mask though

It seems the Koningsdam has learned nothing from December/January!

[GTVCRUISER]

I went to all the Coffee Talks with Kristen , on my Hawaii cruise on the Koningsdam 🙂 

[Hogladyrider]

Pacific Giants talk was fascinating!

[Hogladyrider]

Future Cruises was also interesting.

Can I see inside it!!!  I keep seeing photos of it but not what filling is inside 😂😂  I’ve got to try one soon….

[Hogladyrider]

I will try to get an interior pic but it won't be pretty I destroyed it enjoying 3/4 first sitting.  Put rest in refrig for later...inside is like a whipped cream but not real sweet perfect flavor 

Won't be back in my room until after 5 pm so stay tuned.

Looks like it 8s filled with a pastry =or ice cream filling . what is it filled with Susan ? 

The 17 species of Pacifi Ocean whales .That is  very interesting . Binnoculars & good eyes can catch those giants  looking from the ship or  on a whale tour . In Hawaii the boats must keep 100 yards from the whales but in Mexico they can get as close as 50 yards  .However , Mexico they use 12 or 14 passenger boats  for their whale tours .Even with life vests on that is too close imo & the boats are too small . 

Aloha

Susan it takes 20 years on the ship to become a pastry chef .Enjoy it to the last morsel

Ocean view room, not balcony

High are you sensing more posts about the cruise .We  would like your slant on the daily activities aboard .  We take handicap balcony cabins as I use a red scooter ,4 wheels  & my wife uses a rollator walker . I am riding a stationary recumban bike here daily & I use weight adjustable 25 lb set of dumbells to try & not use the scooter .If I can huild my self up I can walk enough distance around the ship .then we coud book a regular balcony cabin ;which would have gotten on this cruise . so trying hard . 

Aloha

I thought I had taken a pic of inside but sadly when I checked just the outside.  It's filled with Chantilly cream which is sweetened whipped cream with vanilla.  Whipped cream on the inside, chocolate on the outside.  I was expecting it to be quite sweet and was happy that it wasn't.

Kristen must be a excellent cruise director .  If we were on this cruise we would book a future cruise because the deposit is only $100 pp . & the possibility of extra ion board credit  because you book on the ship 7 if it is a early booking cruise then Matiners get a extra early booking on board credit as well
