Holland America Volendam flooded room cause odor
Holland America flooded room cause unacceptable odor. They attempted to dry the room with dehumidifiers which were very noisy ( go to 1:25, you can hear how loud they are) therefore we had to move to another room with my family ie 4 people in a room that is supposed to be for only 2 people (this is in another video)

Late Night Sailing and Emergency Message Volendam
Sailing on the Volendam, January 2010. There was a small fire on the ship, with some sirens and emergency announcements over an hour or so. We were enjoying the balmy night and videoing the waves when one of the emergency announcements came over the PA.

Volendam manouvres in Cairns Harbour

Fant-Asia
Part 1 of our family cruise around Asia with stops in Kobe, Nagasaki, Naha and Busan on the MS Volendam







4 people forced to live in a 2 people suite on Volendam
Holland America flooded room cause unacceptable odor. They attempted to dry the room with dehumidifiers which were very noisy therefore we had to move to another room with my family ie 4 people in a room that is supposed to be for only 2 people. As you can see there is LITERALLY NO walking room whatsoever. And a cruise is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable. Holland America is certainly not either of those.






Sean Bell & The Neptunes-Gingy
This was on the Holland American's ms Volendam cruise on the way to Alaska, USA. This was one of the many new oldies songs we would come to love because of the boys of Neptunes. And yes Sean is very into his music.haha! =D
