stormyc Posted May 18, 2005 #26 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Thanks Stormy!!! I'm celebrating already :D (well, apart from cleaning, laundry, and packing - I am celebrating; dancing inside). Except for the fact that I'll probably be off the ship when it happens, I look forward to chatting with ya and letting you know how the trip went! Have a good one! Already looking forward to your review!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzingqueen Posted May 18, 2005 #27 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Could there be two Shys?? Maybe if you described the Shy on the Maasdam that might solve the problem. And if I see Angelo I would be more than happy to ask him if he will be there in December for you. :) Hey Alison - I owe Hunky Dorey an email. I'll ask him for you tomorrow when I email him. He is getting off the ship the first week of June but hopefully I'll hear back before he leaves for his vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spcl4cs_gal Posted May 18, 2005 #28 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Thanks...but from the picture that rocks sent me, I believe he is on the Maasdam. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidNDC Posted May 19, 2005 Author #30 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Hi folks! More live reporting from the May 14 Zuiderdam. First, to any who may have panicked, the remark I made regarding the Princess ship was a joke....we really didn't run into them! Second, the cruise is going incredibly. Service is outstanding and the people I meet are wonderful. Third, I do regret to say that the weather is not accommodating. Worst weather I have had on a cruise. Today is Wednesday. I have not seen sunshine since Sunday. I cancelled plans to visit beaches in Tortola yesterday and St. Thomas today. Oh and finally....one minor controversy....some problem involving a broken freezer. No ice cream (none!) for past three days. This affects some desserts. More when I get back....and Ray is going to be writing a comprehensive review and I think posting it on Sunday. David May 14 Zuiderdam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tak8 Posted May 19, 2005 #32 Share Posted May 19, 2005 DavidNDC: Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear about the weather. I'd miss the ice cream. I love to grab a scoop in the afternoon. Hopefully, sunny skys and ice cream will appear soon. Looking forward to hearing full story upon your return. Thanks for answering the Tortola/St. Thomas days issue. Some of us with private excursions werea little concerned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus Posted May 19, 2005 #33 Share Posted May 19, 2005 i guess the one thing i can look forward to, what with my planning on scuba diving each port-of-call, is that the weather has to be really, REALLY bad before they cancel that activity. that said, it's a helluva lot more fun when the sun is shining... sorry the weather is being so uncooperative for you, david! *crosses fingers and hopes for good weather on the 28-may sailing* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumpy Posted May 19, 2005 #35 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Hi David - I'm truly sorry about your weather; wish it had been better for you. I'm crossing my fingers they don't cancel HMC for us on Sunday. Looks like the storm will get there if their predictions are correct. I'm not holding my breath either way. Bummer about the freezer. I'm not big on ice cream, but DH will be disappointed if it isn't fixed while we're there. Thanks so much for the updates. Looking forward to Ray's review, but it will be a while before I get to read it! Hope the rest of your time goes smoothly and that you continue to enjoy yourself! (p.s. - after all the wax teasing, I have to tell you that DH and I both did it today; piece of cake. Nothing to fear. You can try it next time!) Hi folks!

Candy Posted May 22, 2005 #36 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Shy isn't back yet. Hunky Dory is being challenged by Burt Reynolds, who could not remember my name all week. Shy used to sing, "I want Candy" every time he saw me... I love HAL's smiling, friendly staff! Candy <-- suffering from post-cruise depression and researching the next booking Glad you're having a good cruise. Would you happen to know if Shy back in the Lido/Vista Diningroom yet? I heard that he would be returning sometime this month from his vacation. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
