We have been cruiseing for a while and decided to return to one of our favorite places, Bermuda. Since it was our 20th wedding anniversary, we decided to go with HAL on the Veendam. We had never been on HAL before, bu since the ship is smaller than most of the new liners, she could dock in Hamilton.
We are fortunate that we live in NJ and are within easy driving distance to both Bayonne and Manhattan for cruise departures. Flying has become too much of a hassle, and we enjoy the ease and security of parking our car right at the dock.
Embarkation went smoothly. we were aboard the ship and having lunch by 12:30.
Large room with breakfast nook. DVD player and video library. Bathtub and great amount of storage space.
