10,000+ Club (5/15)

  1. I did it in 2019 with no problem. To be sure I would ask onboard, hopefully they haven’t changed the rules.
  2. Greetings from the Volendam! Today we took a great tour out of Papeete to waterfalls, gorgeous gardens, an underwater cave and more. Good day! Two more ports in French Polynesia and then we will begin our trek to San Diego.
  3. Rich I agree about the show last night. I thought his first show was much better, he probably did more singing than comedy. Unfortunately it seemed like the first half of the show last night fell flat. I’m looking forward to the local cultural show tonight. Today we had a short tour this morning and then walked to the market where I got flowers for the cabin.
  4. Hi Nancy, I don’t know what Rich did in Moorea, but some did the glass bottom boat, some snorkeling. We took tours around the island both days and saw a Polynesian show.
  5. We cruise both HAL and Celebrity, HAL being our preferred line because of their itineraries and we get free laundry. 😁 I was very surprised at your remarks about the service on Celebrity because it has been excellent in our experience (most recent 9 months ago on Solstice. Celebrity’s entertainment overall beats HAL without question. I find the food to be on a par.
  6. We enjoyed last night’s show too. Overall we’ve enjoyed all of them, with only a few that we didn’t care for. I guess that’s to be expected on a 94-day cruise. Also will add to Lorraine’s opinion about the talks — very good! And Daniel our Cruise Director makes everything fun.
  7. On the Volendam now, we have bar soap and dispensers. I do bring my own bath soap too.
  8. I’ve turned mine off because I was getting mystery notifications all day. I figured out they were just to let me know about my set dining time. But I don’t need to be reminded about that every day beginning in the early morning 🙄 I do check for messages though.
  9. Greetings from the Volendam! Last night’s theme night was Hollywood night and a take-off on Oscars night. But it was the crew who got awards. Great idea! Housekeeping getting an award.
  10. We didn’t care for the show last night either. We rarely leave early from a show (maybe only twice ever) and this was one of those times.
  11. Not Rich, but here’s a video DH took. IMG_4329.mov
  12. We have now had to get broken glass cleaned up twice in our cabin. A friend, her chair and dishes all went flying in the Lido earlier. Thankfully she’s ok.
  13. Ok, I didn’t hear his announcement yesterday, just this morning 15-24-foot. What a ride!
  14. Rich are you sure you meant to say 5-foot swells? 😀 The broken glass in our cabin says otherwise. 😀😉
  15. Rich we loved Chris Powley’s show last night, excellent! As you well know I’m very critical of any Neil Diamond impersonations, but his was the best I’ve ever heard anywhere. His other “legend” impersonations were excellent too. We also thought he was much funnier than our comedian this week. 😉
