Good morning,
our travels continue and after the Celebrity Apex, we have now tried a “trip down memory lane” sailing on the Celestyal journey ex Ryndam of Holland America with a 7 day cruise from Pireaus to the Greek Islands.
This review can be found to the right of this post under the header:

Please click on it, and then go one more time to the right and you will see the name of the ship at the bottom and click again.
I hope you will find it interesting and maybe diverting.

Howdy…and good for you. Enjoying your retirement cruising!
I just returned from 2 Voyages on the Nieuw Statendam. The first was Iceland and Scotland in July. I had a group of 108 passengers. The second was also the Nieuw Statendam, same cabin, same Captain, Norway and Scotland on August 24th with 105 passengers. I love the layout of the Nieuw Statendam, and she is decorated very
well.
Keep enjoying all your travels.
Kind regards,

Dear Captain Albert, I have been an avid reader of your blog since we sailed on the Prinsendam, and have enjoyed reading about your adventures and seafaring observations. Please keep it up. We have been on over 100 cruises and appreciate your reviews of current cruise ships. Sincerely, Harvey Bernstein

I love your candid reviews
I wanted to tell you that Cunard Queen Elizabeth read ” the memo”, after your comments on the ” glare test” Officers now look at us when they speak. regular crew usually did. I shall be amused next month, if Hal officers on the Koningsdam got ”the memo” and are following through. You have great power.
