RuthC Posted August 10, 2007 Author #152 Share Posted August 10, 2007 [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=royalblue]I'm ready to go. Oh, I'm not packed, or dressed for travel, or anything like that, but I'm ready to leave the ship. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1]Now, don't misunderstand. I just came from the disembarkation talk/crew farewell/[I]Love In Any Language[/I] presentation and have the warm and fuzzys all over, but I would feel that way anyway. Even though Prinsendam is badly in need of it's upcoming drydock it is still a beautiful ship. The crew and staff are as good as any I have ever sailed with---and better than most. Every single person I have come in contact with has gone "above and beyond" to a superlative level. The food is good (and sometimes great); the activities are fun. The entertainment has, well, entertained me. :D [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1]But this cruise on this ship was not the best for the solo traveller. So, I have been to some great new places, revisited some old haunts, checked a few things off my lifetime "to do" list, and am ready to look forward to the next adventure. :) [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=3][COLOR=#4169e1]Thanks to all of you for coming along for the ride.

Old As Dirt Mom Posted August 10, 2007 #163 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Oh My the time has gone by way too quickly Ruth, thanks for bringing us along. Enjoy your last evening aboard the Beautiful MS Maasdam :) Lisa, I thought Ruth was on the Prinsendam?:confused: Or perhaps she got off one ship and onto another?:D No matter where she cruises, and on what ship, the Happy Wanderer always talks a good story:) Karin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising-along Posted August 10, 2007 #165 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Ruth I have been following your posts from the Prinsendam with great interest :) Thank you for taking the time to "take us along with you", it sounds like a cruise I can only hope to take some day.

Rare LAFFNVEGAS Posted August 10, 2007 #166 Share Posted August 10, 2007 OK dummy me:o I guess I had Maasdam on the brain, but then we all know how BLONDE I am;) I am soooo sorry , YES the Elegant MS Prinsendam:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've enjoyed your company very much. :) Can't believe your trip is just about over already. It's been fun reading your posts from on board. When you have time I hope you share some of the details on why this wasn't a great ship/cruise for soloing. This Itinerary or something close to it is definitely on my "to go" list (maybe in 2009) and I know I'll have to go solo so would like to know what could impact that (other than the AYW issue!)
