We beginnen in Rome, gaan met de Koningsdam naar Dubrovnik, Kotor, Split, Korcula, Kerkira (Corfu), Catania (Sicilië) en terug naar Rome. We hebben medio maart onze boarding passes geprint en de kofferlabels liggen klaar.

De Koningsdam is de eerste van de Pinnacle-klasse schepen van Holland America Line en combineert 21e-eeuwse elegantie met nautische traditie. Haar ontwerp is geïnspireerd door muziek en bevat vloeiende lijnen, met licht overspoelde ruimtes en innovatieve, nieuwe eet- en entertainmentgelegenheden, van de indrukwekkende, twee verdiepingen tellende World Stage tot Music Walk™, met Lincoln Center Stage, B.B. King’s Blues Club en Billboard Onboard. De Koningsdam is eigenlijk een bestemming op zich, er is zoveel te verkennen.

Koningsdam is the first ship in the Pinnacle Class of Holland America and combines 21st century elegance with nautical tradition. The design was inspired by music and has flowing lines, light filled rooms and innovative, new eating and entertainment possibilities ranging from the impressive two levels high World Stage to the Music Walk, with Lincoln Center Stage, B.B. King's Blues Club and Billboard Onboard. Koningsdam is really a destination in itself because there is very much to explore. Mid-March we printed out boarding passes and the Luggage tags .
