I consider lunch in the Pinnacle to be a very special occasion. The filet with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes are really something I'm not having on a regular basis where I live. Bring it on. I will happily leave my coveted lounge chair and book to enjoy a very fun lunch complete with a great glass of wine.

This is all heartbreaking and so miserable. Oh, to wait for peace. We pray.

Happy to see Holland America embrace their Dutch Heritage

Oh, for sure, my beloved loves the beer in the Dutch cafe!!!!! I love the ambiance..... -
Beautiful beaches there.

But, I agree, they need to be cleared up. It's not like any of us want to pay for things we didn't purchase.

Spending even one minute at the front desk trying to clear wrong charges on your account is a complete waste of your time. It's always bewildered me that so little can go so wrong.

March 2024 Update HAL Dry Docks, Charters & Groups Onboard
albingirl replied to VMax1700's topic in Holland America Line
And useful for those whom we wish to avoid lol -
I like to tip everyone, but this was a tough one, since everyone in there seemed to wait on us at some point. What I did was ask the manager for a complete list of all the employees in there and gave them all special recognition in the end, on the survey. There was never going to be enough money in my pocket to do them justice, so that's how I handled it.

Tenerife is a big place. Generally you can avoid these things; we did in Barcelona.

Happiness shall surely follow you. Bon voyage! What a fun itinerary!
-
The food is good. One time I had the vegetarian Indonesian selection and it was awesome. We don't always go, but I generally don't like to miss it.

Such a nice trip! The Canary Islands are interesting, and very different from most destinations. We learned alot while visiting them......hoping you have a fabulous cruise!

No matter what; drinking alot and playing bingo is always fun! Fun crowd, I am sure -
I always thought it was strange that they leave key cards outside your stateroom door. First of all, that is your key card for drinks and other very important things that matter. Casino isn't open but you could charge a boatload of drinks on that card. Never mind, just thinking of mischief and mayhem.

Once, someone from the President's club asked us to join them for an event. The wine was flowing. Not much more needs to be said, lol!

On the positive side, I think the shorter wait time at the bars is a real plus. -
Oceania for HAL cruisers who love classical music?
albingirl replied to Hlitner's topic in Holland America Line
I've seen plenty of people wear running shoes in the dining room on HAL. I think it has something to do with balance when the ship is rolling. Just my opinion. I don't think anyone on this good earth thinks that running shoes are that attractive, so I doubt it's a rebellion against fashion rules. -
It's really very hard for me to imagine a nasty experience on K and Statendam. Sorry, but that seems like a bit of a stretch. It's nice you like the smaller ships, but the Pinnacle ships have their strong points, as well.

Interested in a comparison between HAL and a Scenic River cruise?
albingirl replied to 1of4's topic in Holland America Line
Enjoying this review. Thank you.! -
I really love sea days and I generally wander around aimlessly. That's a fun thing for me. I never get bored as long as I have enough reading material. The cooking shows in the past were wonderful, but that's the past.
-
Don't worry. You still have a nice stateroom, after all.
-
It's been fun following along with your fan club. I appreciate your effort to give us all insight into your great traveling adventure!

Where I live, in Florida, dogs are not legally allowed on the beach, but people bring them on all the time. As the saying goes, rules for thee and not for me.
-
But, I'd like to add, I'm kind of a sunny side up girl and try to roll with it. I'd love to be on a cruise right this minute!
