Traveled with children

The good things: there was something for everyone and we are aged 13 to 80. We all liked the evening entertainment, particularly the gymnast and the comedian who did the impressions and some of us liked the singers and dancers. (meh).

With a few exceptions (hey that lobster thermidor was really bad) we had a good time at dinner from opening night to the final Parade of the Baked Alaska (and for those of you who hate and avoid it, what can I say? We waved our napkins with the best of them.) The waiters were great and always remembered my cappuccino.

We played Team Trivia every day and came-this-close to winning a ball cap. Some of us did that mile walk every day and I tried learning Tai Chi and the Hula - good instructors too. I meant to take the camera class and never got there but maybe next time. We all enjoyed dress-up (the grandchildren too) and looking at others who made the effort. Some pretty tiny dresses on some of those teen aged girls but at least one of us wasn't complaining...

Cabin Review

Vista Suite

Cabin A

Is it my imagination or does the Rotterdam have narrower Veranda cabins than the Ryndam or Maasdam?

The door to the refrigerator had a big gash in it and the handle was missing. We mentioned it to the office but nothing was done. The bathtub was very grungy as the finish is worn off.

The location was perfect for us, plenty of storage space, the bed was very comfy. Our grandson was happy with his sofa bed ("I am used to camping so its ok.")
