4-5 Day Cruises Out Of Galveston

[klingoncruiser]

They are talking about the Statendam on the HAL board, but I can not find where it is for real. The HAL.com site is inconsistant. It shows that ship on a Hawaii run in Dec of 2005 and yet the yearly calander shows it in the Caribbean. Any one know for sure?

Next cruise- Serenade of the Sea to Alaska- July 25. Roll call started!

Was that High School Reunion? I haven't been watching (except for the episode where they supposedly went skinny dipping... they need to read up on that [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img])... but anyway, I went to High School in Michigan. No reality shows from there yet!

Hey Birman - You'll like the Grand. The only think I found was it was difficult to get to certain places.

Klingoncruiser - I went to the HAL board and read the posts. I even tried the HAL.com site. Do they have a phone number to ask about the 4-5 day cruises (I may have missed it)? I thought HAL only ran 7 day cruises?

BTW - How old is old? I'm just wondering if I hit old yet?

I gathered that the cruise would be a longer cruise. Say 10-12 days and include Panama. Let me ask the ppl on the HAL board. I would love to try HAL. But it is not worh going to Florida for. I would NEVER take one in Alaska. They really do cater to the OLD and OLDER crowd there. I am not ready for that yet.

Well, it looks like we'll be doing a 4-5 day cruise out of Ft. Lauderdale or Miami this year. That is "if" I can get away from work etc...

It sounds even more realistic for HAL to do 10 and 11 day cruises to compete with the Galaxy. I bet that's what'll happen! [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img]
