Inside the Zuiderdam

Welcome back and a Merry Christmas to you all! I've been back in England for a week now but I've still got a few blog posts to share with you from my last cruise. Today I'll show you around parts of the Zuiderdam including a look at the Christmas decs and my cabin! Not a lot to read, just some pictures to take in. Enjoy!


Above: The Neptunes. From left to right: Johnny, Peter and Nick.


Above: The Ocean Bar, where we played. Not as pretty as the Ryndam's Ocean Bar!


Above: The Vista Lounge where the main shows take place. This is a big theatre!


Above: A shot of the atrium with the Waterford Crystal seahorse taking prominence. The Ocean Bar is to the right on the top deck of this picture.


Above: These are all the plaques that the ship has received every time it visits a new port of call.


Above: Many of the elevators (sorry, 'lifts') had these intricate designs - very snazzy!


Above: The Explorations Cafe on the top deck is a popular place for guests to read a book or surf the web (but mostly fall asleep).


Above: Looking down from the walk-around top deck to the Lido Pool in the mid-ship area.


Above: A quick behind the scenes snap of one of the store rooms. There were loads of these rooms - a huge amount of food and drink!


Above: My cabin! Bigger than my previous cabin on the Ryndam but with a smaller ensuite (to the right of this picture).


Above: Saved the best to last! The atrium decked out with Christmas decorations just before I flew home last week.

Thanks for following my blog this year! I'll be back soon with a few more posts from the Zuiderdam before telling you about my exciting plans for 2012 which include Europe and Australasia!
