UPDATE!
Well, I’ve been home for just over a week… Time to put out the next schedule! My travels begin at the end of October when I fly to San Diego, boarding the Koningsdam on November 2nd. We will sail on the Koningsdam until March 22nd when we switch ships to the Zaandam until May 3rd. It should be another great voyage filled with lots of Mexico, Coastal California, Hawaii and a bit of French Polynesia… Can’t wait!
Well, I can’t believe I decided to give the full schedule of upcoming voyages… After our sailings on the Koningsdam and Zaandam in 2024-25, I will be boarding the Volendam on 21 September 2025 and staying onboard until May 17th 2026… Yep, that’s a long one! This will encompass a 45-day Legendary Voyage to the Mediterranean, a 30-day Legendary Voyage to the Amazon and to top it all off, the 132-day 2026 Grand World Voyage… Just keep traveling!
