It was in 2018 on the Noordam. Guests signed up to swim across the Lido pool, climb out, and kiss the fish. It was so well received that there were two lines going. Prior to and after the ceremony
anyone could kiss the fish.
Yes, but that was back in the day that we, as polywog passengers, actually got to partake in the festivities, swimming across the pool and kissing the fish. A fond memory. I think it is only crew now in the brink.
We have sailed on both the K'dam and and Niew Statendam. Both times we had early fixed dining, both times we were seated on the lower level, and both were excellent dining experiences. We have also had early fixed dining, seated on the lower level on other classes of ships. Never been an issue.
Several years ago while vacationing at Whistler DH jokingly asked our personable sever why Canadians say, "Eh." His response was, "The same reason you Yanks say, 'Uh.'"
