I can hardly believe we actually did it. We had such a bad experience on Princess 3 years ago. We decided to put it all behind us & try a new line and not expect so much. Many, many thanks to all of you who offered your valuable advice to my hysterical questions. After a lot of CC site monitoring & investigation we booked an SC corner suite (6158) on the 6th deck (Upper Veranda I believe) for Oosterdam, Mexican Riviera 12/8/07. I'm so excited I'm about to expire! Its only a week cruise, but we thought we'd better get back into it gradually & test the waters. If anyone has been on Oosterdam #SC6158, I'd love to hear from you. If anyone else is going on this cruise, we'd love to hear from you too! Thanks again everyone.:D

Congratultions. We booked today too, but for the Noordam. Check the roll calls and you can see if anyone else is going on that cruise.

Good for you, Golfette:) I'll bet you'll be ready to book another one after this cruise...and another one after that....
Please check back with us when it's time for your doc dance. I will play the music.

Golfette, I'm so glad it worked out! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time. We've loved the Oosterdam when we've been on it. We've done the cruise you're going to do (different HAL ship for that one) and I think you'll like that choice as well.

Hey SeaRay - that is great that you will be on the same cruise. Are you boaters by any chance (SeaRay?). Hopefully some others will be there also. We're really excited about it!

Golfette - Looks like your cabin is fabulous. I did a quick search for you and saw others who have booked it in the past. Go to search at the top of this page.....at top left corner, type in 6158, and at bottom right scroll down to Holland America and click, then hit the search button at the center bottom. Enjoy......gg
