    What a nice surprise for your readers, Captain. Many, many thanks for the generous splash of pictures on this contract of yours. It worked ‘therapeutic’ on me somehow! I am really, really happy to have found these fairly new write-ups of yours in December of 2007. Partly also thanks to my own interest of wantng to understand the lives of people working on board Holland America !! All my bestest wishes for 2009 to you and Lesley – – –

  3. Happy New Year to you and the crew and staff of the Veendam. We had the pleasure of sailing on this fine ship in the past.
    I have so enjoyed your blog, thank you so much for continuing to post to it. Your recollections of past New Year’s Eves had me almost rolling on the floor.
    May your 2009 be a wonderful year for you and Lesley. We will look forward to hearing from the Prinsendam.

    A belated Happy New Year to you and your wife. As always, I have enjoyed your blog. Best wishes as you leave for a well-earned vacation. I look forward to resuming my virtual cruises with you on your new ship in the spring. In the meantime, I will have 10 days of real-life cruising on the Noordam in March!

  6. As a guest on the Christmas cruise with my family we throughly enjoyed it and will cruise again with HAL. I have just had the time to get caught up on the Blog and the entries from our cruise. Happy New Year to you and all the crew.
