emilygrace Posted February 25, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Well yes, I probably am, but that's beside the point. My question is, I thought I read somewhere that the staterooms all have DVD players. We are in an ocean view on the Statendam, so do these staterooms have them or only the suites? Thanks!

sail7seas Posted February 25, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 25, 2009 And there is a decent selection of DVD's to rent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Copper10-8 Posted February 25, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 25, 2009 And the flat screen TV's are very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilygrace Posted February 25, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Thanks for all your prompt answers! So can you bring your own DVDs to watch? We have a couple of movies we've purchased, but never had the time to view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we did just that last week on Ryndam and they work just fine - But I wouldn't recommend bringing "Nights in Rodanthe":eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruz chic Posted February 25, 2009 #13 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Consensus: They ALL have DVD's Are you sure:D;)? I have to make one comment however. I found the DVD to be oldy moldies on my cruise on the Statendam. Every one was at least a few years old IIRC. They showed better movies on the TV and in the theater.

hammybee Posted February 25, 2009 #14 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The in cabin experience continues to improve while the cost of most cabins, on most sailings, declines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowPrincess Posted February 25, 2009 #15 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I found the DVD to be oldy moldies on my cruise on the Statendam Yes, on the Ryndam too. But nice that anything is available, and also nice if you can pick up a couple of resale DVDs before your trip to enjoy in the cabin. Our Ryndam cabin had a nicer TV and DVD player than we have :D Somethin's gotta give if we are going to cruise regularly, and TV-type toys is one of the things that had to give :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usha Posted February 25, 2009 #17 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The DVD player we had in our balcony cabin on Westerdam didn't work. They sent a guy to see about a fix, but it was a goner, and they didn't have any replacements. we had to just tough out our 14 days/nights cruising in the beautiful caribbean on that lovely ship without being holed-up in our room watching movies.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 100 lbs of clothes and bling to pack after all Oh yeah, geez, I forgot about THAT :D I'd not leave my french press coffee maker home in favor of DVDs but might consider foregoing one bottle of wine! I think I travel lighter than you do, lorekauf. But then, I don't go on l-o-n-g cruises! (I can't imagine how much luggage I'd have if I got to do the length of cruise you do!) Though since discovering the laundromat onboard, I'm seriously considering carry-on only for the upcoming Alaska cruise. I think I can do it, if I choose my purse judiciously :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowPrincess Posted February 26, 2009 #20 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I need my liquids (and I'm not talking booze here). I use a powder foundation & shadow, and have travel sized moisturizer and cologne. MY big "liquid" is wine, and I get that just before I board the ship :D I figure I can take 2 pairs of technical pants, wool socks, a few shirts, a fleecy, a long black skirt, 2 evening tops, a couple of pairs of shoes, undies, and a base layer EASILY in my carry-on. I'll wear my Goretex jacket, jeans, another fleecy and my hiking boots to travel.... Do laundry when I get back onboard in Skagway. I'm just more "crunchy granola" than most people, I think (OMG, a decade ago I'd have cut out my tongue before I would even CONSIDER not having 8 pairs of dress pants, 6 skirts, several silk shirts, a couple of cashmere sweater, full-length gown and at least 10 pairs of shoes for a 7 day cruise!!!) <-- See, that's what happens from living in "The Sticks" :D My camera, batteries, curling iron, bling, french press coffee maker and my toiletries can fit into the "right" purse (or possibly a backpack). But I could NEVER do it for a 20+ day cruise. NEVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowPrincess Posted February 26, 2009 #22 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Abandon your career, move to the sticks, adopt too many pets, and live hand-to-mouth. Make CERTAIN you move somewhere that "dressing up" is clean blue jeans and a freshly pressed shirt :) And eat so much you can no longer fit in your "city" clothes.... that's solved MY overpacking problem :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
