๐ทHellooooo to everyone on the River Cruise boards! We are just back.. literally just back yesterday.. from an absolutely Tip Top seven day "Tulip Time" cruise aboard Avalon's Imagery II. A little about us.. we both just recently hit the big 6-0 and this is our fourth European river cruise. Might I venture to say we are now seasoned veterans of river cruising; first sailing the Rhine on Avalon back in 2016, followed by a Viking cruise on the Seine in 2017, and then an AMA cruise on the Danube right after International travel started up again in 2021. It's super exciting now to have circled back to the beginning and we were thrilled to sail with Avalon again. Our week (March 19, 2023 to March 26, 2023) on the Imagery II was truly delightful in every way. It was a journey filled with historic ports, delicious food, plentiful wine, smooth waters and lovely new friends. Although we didn't actually didn't see any tulips (except in the flower market in Amsterdam) we did have the best tulip-less time ever! Our cruise was the first of the season and the tulips, being weather dependent, weren't blooming just yet. Keukenhof Gardens opened on March 23rd this year and we left Amsterdam on March 19th so we ended up being two blooms that passed in the night. The only thing that could have been improved upon was the weather. I would say it was about 60% rain.. 20% drizzle..10% mist and only about 10% sun. However.. even though nonstop (or even just a little) sunshine would have been nice.. the less than ideal weather didn't put a damper on things at all. I can't wait to share all of our wonderful experiences during this magical week as we sailed from Amsterdam to Brussels. So now that the suitcases are unpacked and the last load of laundry is done.. I'm ready to write. Come sail along with us on our truly TUL-rific, TUL-ightful and TUL-icious yet TUL-ipless journey!๐ท

Hmm... not sure if there are any other plugs in the cabin that are so easily accessible. Maybe behind the desk because there is a lamp there that needs to be plugged in? And yes! Both sides of the bed have the same outlets. We actually found the outlets to be very plentiful and that was with charging 2 laptops, 2 phones, a watch, and a hairdryer. ๐ So glad that the pix were helpful!

Hello! As someone who records everything I have pix of the outlets!๐ This is by the desk. This is by the bed.
