the2ofus Posted December 15, 2006 #1 Share Posted December 15, 2006 OOOh, I just love that tingly feeling I get when I finally book a cruise!! My Dear Sis and I just booked on the Volendam April 12 Southern Carib and Panama Canal cruise. In just four months I'll be standing at the aft rail watching the wake in the beautiful blue sea!! I found that 7083 was still available. That's one of the aft inside cabins with a window on Navigation deck. Has anyone been in my cabin recently and can tell me how the furniture is arranged? Anyone have photos? I've promised Sis if there's a bed under the window, it will be hers. (Now she will be forever indebted to me - heh, heh, heh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakalina Posted December 15, 2006 #2 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Congratulations on your new booking. Doesn't it feel sublime? I love that "just booked" feeling. I booked three at once on my last cruise and now feel cheated out of a couple of tingles. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the2ofus Posted December 15, 2006 Author #4 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Hi, Sail7Seas. I really enjoyed getting to know you the last time I was on the Volendam. This will be my third time on her, and I know Volendam won't disappoint. I just wish our schedule would have allowed me to travel on the Noordam with you all. It would have been fun. Maybe our paths will cross again some day. Kakalina - that's my dream, to be able to always have multiple cruises booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricia724 Posted December 15, 2006 #5 Share Posted December 15, 2006 The only problem is that "just booked feeling" is soon followed by that "OMG final payment is due" panic. It's not NEARLY as good a feeling!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted December 15, 2006 #6 Share Posted December 15, 2006 That's wonderful! I could read your excitement jumping right off the screen. And to get the cabin you want, to boot! Good going! :) I'm happy for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obriendan Posted December 15, 2006 #8 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Congratulations, Jane! Hope you get to play a raisin again:D . Wish we could go with you. We've done the Panama Canal once and it's high on my list to repeat. We will have been back from our long cruise one week before you sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been wonderful if you could have sailed Noordam but hopefully there'll be another time that we'll meet aboard a 'dam' ship. I hope it is soon!! In the meantime, you have another great VODM cruise to look forward to Congratulations for that 'tingly feeling' :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted December 15, 2006 #13 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Congratulations to you, too, Rita. That a a wonderful cruise. We've cruised Panama Canal several times and have greatly enjoyed every time. "Discovery R & R Cruise"........ Has a nice ring to it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevNeal Posted December 15, 2006 #14 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Jane! That's GREAT! I love the Volendam, too, and the Panama Canal is GREAT! I also really like that "just booked" feeling. However, I must say that I consider the "getting ready to board" feeling to be MUCH better. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustaRoo Posted December 15, 2006 #15 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Way to go, Jane! As you know, I'm doing the Panama cruise on the Noordam April 25th. I'm so excited for you and your sis, it'll be great. I did a New Year's cruise on the Volendam and she's wonderful. Wang Wangs all around - cheers:D I love the tingly feeling too:) but then it's accompanied by beads of sweat wondering if I can save enough on time - LOL But oh so worth it!

kryos Posted December 15, 2006 #16 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Ah! But oftentimes it feels soooo good to be bad ;) Really looking forward to cruising with you again for a month Rita. And a month of absolute paradise too! Combining perfect destinations with great cruising friends is the only way to go! By the way ... talked to the boss ... he rolled his eyes, but okayed the "carryover" again. Good boy! :) Blue skies ... --rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
