Two Midwesterners escape winter on the Eurodam.
ottahand7 replied to ottahand7's topic in Holland America Line
Lunch today in the Lido. The roast meats at lunch time are uniformly excellent. A real boon for those of us who do Keto or Atkins. If you want a table in the Lido on a sea day is to get there early. Complicating crowding was end by the Seaview pool was very warm so people moved down to the forward end. Lunch today was Porchetta. John's breakfast this morning which is one of the scramble bowls but with two perfectly poached eggs. -

Today's Daily. The Cruise Director Valerie interviewed last night's comedian in the Explorer's Lounge this morning. We cannot comment of evening shows as we rarely attend. -
Here is another bar menu which may be an old one because it lists the cocktail Penicillin, which has a listed ingredient not on the ship. I will try to find more soon. I don't recall the bar's name but it is near the atrium on the Eurodam.

They are out of date. I will share the new one. Very disappointed, Meomi gone and our favorite Cote du Rhone is not in package 3 but $44. 🤨 Sounds like we have the last of the Meomi unless they restock when we get to Fort Lauderdale.

It goes really smoothly. We pack up all toiletries and valuables and put folded clothes in our suitcase. Our steward will put them on a cart with all the hanging clothes and deliver to our new cabin. We had done this once before on the Volendam when we did one week in a ocean view and then moved to our balcony cabin. We are supposed to get a letter about the entire process, such as close out casino account and any unused on board credit. A beautiful sight.❤️ -

On the topic of Starlink wifi it has been very dependable and working well throughout the ship. We have the surf package and it gets me to where I need to go and I have had some YouTube links open, probably dependent on the length. -

We are getting a complimentary Pinnacle Grill dinner due some misfortune on John's part. He is an early riser and was watching the day's first light when he began to get wet. It was water bouncing off the balcony railing from above. The crew cleaning the Seaview pool deck dropped the running hose over the edge. John got a photo once it turned off and complained. Everyone should let management know when things create problems. A lesser problem is our favorite waiter in the Lido keeps getting a new area assigned each day, as do all the other waiters. He knows I want decaf, John regular and can bring us fruit John craves from the back. Next up I will request they keep the waiters in the same area through the comments section on the Navigator app. -

The Fleet Report and Daily for Sunday, January 7th, 2024
ottahand7 replied to kazu's topic in Holland America Line
Good morning. Up extra early today as our clocks fell back on the way to Roatan. Sunrise is unremarkable but it is a lovely 81 degrees. Thanks for the Daily reports each day, @kazu @rafinmd @JazzyV @cat shepard @summer slope and @dfish. Prayers for everyone on our care list and those in war zones, Ukraine, the Innocents in Gaza and the remaining hostages. @Norseh2o deepest sympathy for you and your family. Today is working out, more football and Pinnacle Grill tonight. We are getting a complimentary Pinnacle Grill dinner later in the week because John got wet from above when sitting on the balcony very early one day. The cleaners cleaning the Seaview pool let the running hose hang over the edge, right down onto our balcony. Room service was terrific last night. Have a lovely Sunday. Nancy- 103 replies

Good evening. A good room service dinner but sadly with a Ravens loss. It was so nice to have the luxury of space to dine being able to look at the TV. I was pleased with the temperature and quality of my room service meal. John had a Club Sandwich extra bacon with a side of mayo. Came with a large pile of chips and Cole slaw, exactly as ordered. I had the salted fish fritters, not fishy at all and the Flat Iron Steak with Chimichurri and Polenta, ordered rare and cooked perfectly. My dessert was the sugar free almond fruit cake. Very pleased and loved the convenience. -

Last night was Gala night. Usually first sea night. We missed it because I had pre scheduled Tamarind. There is a Meet and greet scheduled from our Roll Call on February 4 at 11:15 hosted by Crew News. -

Good morning from sunny Falmouth Jamaica. We are going ashore to shop. We had a lovely dinner in the very full Tamarind last night with cocktails in the Tamarind bar first. John had tuna nigiri, tenderloin, mushrooms and yuzu cheesecake. I had a Nami soft shell crab, shrimp tempura and crispy duck, all delicious.
