Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted May 6, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) When we were last on the Nieuw Amsterdam for New Year's Eve we stayed in cabin # 7137 and loved it . We did request it for the 19 days to San Diego and it was available - but only if we booked it to Canada . We did need to disembark in San Diego and so we settled for the cabin below # 6175 . We had a nice boarding at Noon and when we entered that the cabin was much smaller inside and out . Additionally , instead of a row of lockers for clothes near the vanity which my wife used for dressing - we had a single door leading to the cabin next door . We did book a Family corner Retreat # 4 . Edited May 6, 2022 by scubacruiserx2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted May 7, 2022 Author #11 Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) The Retreat was a little wet and we checked out the breakfast menu that they will serve upon request . The CC M&G was conducted by Dick and Joyce before lunch and was fairly well attended . For lunch we choose the Pinnacle .

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted May 7, 2022 Author #13 Share Posted May 7, 2022 We decided to take a nap after lunch and the sea had grown very calm as we passed around Cuba . We saw some flying fish and a dolphin or 2 so I'll look for the video clip . In the mean time we prepared for a dinner at the Pinnacle . I had a little case of bag envy when I saw this bag hanging from the previous cruise ( a charter cruise ) . Almost dinner time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted May 8, 2022 Author #21 Share Posted May 8, 2022 It was shrimp night at the Canaletto so we were there for diner . I must say that we ate at Sabatini's both for breakfast and dinner several times on the Enchanted Princess in February this year and we preferred the food and service on HAL to that on the Enchanted . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted May 8, 2022 Author #22 Share Posted May 8, 2022 After a protracted and delicious dinner we headed down to see the Jukebox Rogues . The were advertised as Frankie's Boys and we had never seen them before . We had hoped that it would be like the West End Version of Jersey Boys that we saw with some cruising friends that we had met in South America , Karen and Ron . We try to make a point of seeing K&R when we visit Europe as they live near London in the Isle of Mann . As the lights dimmed the audience seemed very busy after the show started . We had been told that there were less than 900 passengers on this trip and so there was plenty of room . We found a nice open space to video with no people in front of us and began the show . We got about a minute into the show and I saw a person look at me and decided to walk into the video . I wanted to say take 2 and reshoot but there was no second chance . There is a part 2 and the the song Sherry was included 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare albingirl Posted May 9, 2022 #25 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Love this travel blog. Thank you. Speaking of bag envy, one of your postings a while back, I always get bag envy. Is there a cure? Doubt it, according to my husband. This a a great review! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
