Nieuw Statendam about 9 miles out.

If only people followed the rules & had some consideration for their fellow cruisers, but chair hogs will always be with us. But paying for a chair will only make a bad situation worse.

Raiatea from the Eurodam Istanbul from the Oosterdam, Europe on the left, Asia on the right.

We sail in July and had excursions booked last year, hope they get it sorted out soon, good luck.

Lots of room for more pins. Enjoy placing pins in those blank spots.

If you need ear plugs then the music is too loud, why bother? I enjoy most music but not if it's that loud.

We also are "Travelers" we like the longer different itineraries we enjoy interesting guest speakers. We used to take in the late show every night, after which we would go up to the Crows Nest which had a live band & you could dance the night away. The couple of times I went down to the Music Walk it was loud, and the dueling piano were not that good. We used to go down & listen to Adagio every night before dinner. Our last cruise in July, two weeks on the Oosterdam we went to the Main Stage three times. Change will happen, some times it's for the better. We all react different, the older we get the more we miss the old ways, how often have we said/heard " it wasn't like this in the old days"

NA arriving.

We will miss the LCS, it was our go to place after getting ready for dinner and then sitting & listening, maybe having a drink waiting for dinner to start. Your right, death by a thousand cuts.
