dchip Posted December 29, 2019 #2 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I was onboard the Amsterdam in November for my birthday. Until you mentioned the balloons, I realized I hadn’t even missed them. Cheers, Denise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer slope Posted December 29, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Are they giving lids to the coffee you purchase in the explorations cafe? I may have to pack my own travel cup if they don't. Don't want to spill hot coffee on myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodworker&knitter Posted December 29, 2019 #6 Share Posted December 29, 2019 The coffee lids in the Exploration Cafe are a paper product. I had no problem with it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the heck of it, I just logged into the site to check for my cruise and the birthday package (which included balloons) and the other package for couples that included balloons are no longer listed for purchase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted December 29, 2019 #8 Share Posted December 29, 2019 We have spent many of DH's birthdays on a ship and quite a few anniversaries. Unless we paid for them, no balloons on the door. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ottahand7 Posted December 29, 2019 #9 Share Posted December 29, 2019 (edited) I had them on the Zuiderdam this month but we were in a Neptune Suite and the card was from our concierges Ann Margaret and Ruth and our stewards. Pictured are the new water bottles available in the Retreat. Edited December 29, 2019 by ottahand7 spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodworker&knitter Posted December 29, 2019 #12 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I’m wondering when HAL will eliminate single serve boxes of cereal and small carton milk. Those create a ton of trash, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
