Here's a short message from the pacific ocean.
I am on the second day of the transpacific crossing to tokyo. We will arrive in petropavlovsk, russia in 4 days from now.
The weather conditions are very good, but there's a hurricane warning near the aleution islands. The captain, Peter Harris, just warned us for it.
The volendam is a fantastic ship, much better than the zaandam. This ship has more class.
The food is excellent en the crew is great.
If you have any questions, please post them below as i will check this board almost everyday.
Talk to you later.
Bernard, MS Volendam, Pacific ocean.

Was wondering what one does in Petropavlovsk? What sort of tours are on offer there? A new part of the world to me, eastern Russia!

Here's another short message from the ms volendam.
The seas are extremely rough. we had a medical emergency with a crew - member last night and today a passenger had to be taken of the ship near dutch harbour on the aleoution islands.
so far everything has been very spectacular but most of the passengers are seasick. everything is very quiet atound the ship and the formal night has been cancelled.
I will answer your questions as soon as possible.
Bernard
Anyway,I am sure he will be in contact as soon as he is able.Right,Bernard??

I just re-checked for you and ITravelnow has posted her latest info under"Live from the Volendam...China Next Stop".This is the most current post from her.
The Volendam is cruising the Sea of Thailand to-day and I am sure everyone is resting up after their arduous excursions. Tomorrow - Singapore - then they have a few days at sea stopping next at Broome, Australia, having skipped Bali.Maybe the lady will be posting more after Singapore.It's been an amazing trip!
