This was our third "last" family vacation. Four of us, including 2 girls, ages 20 and 23. Our last family cruise was the Zuiderdam in 2007, but the two of us have been on the Maasdam twice and the Zuiderdam in the last couple of years.

The flight into LaGuardia the day before embarkation was spectacular! Flew up the Hudson River to amazing views of Manhattan in the late evening sun with clear skies. It was fun picking out the landmarks, and we were able to take some nice pictures from the plane. Easily able to get a taxi (Ford Explorer) that could hold the four of us and our luggage. I had to load the luggage while the driver watched, and provide the directions to our hotel that I had printed from Google Maps.

We stayed at the Verve Hotel, part of the Choice Hotels chain, (almost) free using hotel points. It is halfway between the airport and the pier. The free room is the one across from the ice machine, next to the entrance to the the underground parking garage with the gate that opens and closes all night, and near the room with the microwave and its beeping timer. In addition, while I was told when making the reservation that there would be a $35 charge because we had two extra people staying in the room, they did not tell me until we checked in that it was $35 per person for the extra two people.
