living on a ship
On the Ryndam, I met a very nice lady who always wore a rose in
her hair. I commented on it and she told me she'd lived aboard HAL ships for 14 YEARS, paying double for the single supplement. I wonder if the singles cabins on NCL would be a half-priced, so to speak, way to retire. -- Nonny ELOQUIDIOT (n) A highly educated, sophisticated, and articulate person who has absolutely no clue concerning what they are talking about.

LOL Ermalee ---hi Brian There are "retirement communities" for age 55 and up. I'm 55 and I don't have any wrinkles. Why would anyone have a problem with wrinkles anyway? Everyone gets them sooner or later. I think that post just rubbed me the wrong way. Marsha |

I can't believe she was as thin as she was living on a ship for so many years! I didn't know she was paying double for a single supplement...no wonder the crew and staff were so supportive and caring of her! Wonder what category cabin she is in and how she handles the tips? ;-) --Jean |

I suspect she feels she is living the life of a queen and it does seem pretty good to me. I have heard of similar ladies. Harry Cooper |

living on a ship
For anyone who doesn't know it, the lady that Tom spoke about is "Momma
Lou". She has been on most of the HA ships over the years, and knows many of the crew members. She told me that she gets lots of gifts from, and gives gifts to many of them on Birthdays, etc. She is a delightful lady. She said that she was going to her home in Florida while the Ryndam is in drydock. Who else out there has met "Momma Lou" and on what ship?
