In the mid 1990;s the paper had a Dutch name and they even told where all the ships were each day. They would even list the ship under construction over in Venice. That stopped around 2000. The Dutch name was 'Dagelijks Nieuws" - Daily News and it did have the daily location of the Dam ships however, there were a lot less than the current fourteen ships during those times Enjoyed your excellent blog and pics, OP Edited January 13, 2020 by Copper10-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We noticed a ship with boats on it's deck . Maybe they were Christmas presents . Another thing that we noticed which may have been done during dry dock was foot lights . They would come on when you would walk past them - very handy at night . I do appreciate your review. Our next cruise is a partial canal in December. We're in 5190. That ship is transporting yachts. It's not uncommon for owners to move their boats back and forth between the Med and the Caribbean. Move to the Med before hurricane season and bring them back after hurricane season.

goddessofchaos Posted February 17, 2020 #429 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) I am totally enjoying your commentary and particularly your excellent photography! I will be doing the Panama Canal in April and we have an aft cabin on the Navigation deck. I plan to take a ton of photos! Yours are giving me much encouragement.

On our cruise a water pipe was broken above 5190 so the people were moved and the carpet replaced . We also have 5190 booked for the TA in August . We hope to see Greenland , Iceland and Northern Canada on that one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do love our aft cabins and photography and the Zuiderdam is favorite of the 4 HAL ships that we've been on . We did cruise on her last year to the Baltic , Iceland , Scotland and Norway . If you would like to see the photo travelogue you can click on the link . Some of the most amazing scenery and critters that we saw last year was on the HAL Zaandam with a visit to Patagonia and Antarctica .
