carri cruiser Posted June 18, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I have written a review of our 14 day June 1st cruise. you can find it on member's reviews. I mostly told about the ports, I did no tours, and I didn't say much about the ship, because that is often a matter of personal likes and dislikes, I did not find any problem with the Amsterdam, knowing it has just recently been on a World Voyage, I feel it is in pretty good condition. We got a notice about them wanting to clean our cabin's carpets, and they did that! I saw they were cleaning carpets on some of the other cabins, so wasn't surprised. We had wonderful waiters in the MDR, and our main dinner waiter did a magic trick for us every night. We played Trivia in the Crows nest each night at 6pm, and I played a couple of the bingo games. There was a large cash prize for "blackout bingo", at the end of the cruise it was $100.00! Of course no one won that!! The new" charge it " on your room key in the casino is not a good thing, and I'll bet there were a lot of surprised people at the end of the cruise when they got their final statement!! Please read my ports review and forgive the typos as I have been very busy with my arrival home, my grandson's graduation that night, and a grad party afterwards, a first birthday party for my great grand daughter, and trying to get back to normal., no I am not unpacked yet!!:) Linda, Ps our meet n greet was a good one, and ran into a few of you around the ship, hope you all had a good trip to your homes. (my pup has finally forgiven me for leaving him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted June 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Thank you -- I will go and read it now. One thing I don't like is Trivia at 6 PM -- that is when we have dinner . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valleycruisers Posted June 18, 2012 #3 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Welcome back!! Thank you so much for posting your review - I really enjoyed it and appreciate the time you took to post it! We will be on the July 27 voyage and we are filled with so much anticipation! Did you happen to collect pictures of the menus? We are trying to schedule our reservations for the PG and do not want to miss anything yummy in the MDR! Thanks again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted June 18, 2012 #7 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Just finished your review. We did this cruise last year and enjoyed it so much that we are booked again this year. One thing bothers me -- last year we had to stand in line for the 4 porters on duty at the end of the cruise. Now you say there aren't any porters? This is disturbing as I will be in a wheelchair and can not help DH move 4 pieces of luggage and 2 carryons out to the limo area. Also - no free shuttle in Kodiak? We had one last year. Do you remember which night was the International Dinner? Great review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
