The cruise line has adopted an “as you wish" dining option. You can request either a certain
time (early or late dinner) or come to the dining room that has open seating and the maitre d'
will find you a table. You might be with several other people, but if they just aren't your type
then the next day you will be with someone else or you can call ahead and reserve a table for
just your party.  There are also several dining rooms that cost a little extra, but would be very
nice for that something special for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
Cathedral in Mazatlan
As far as the ports-of-call
in Mexico, they are for you
to do as you please. There
are many shore excursions
available at each port that
you may book and pay for
on the ship or just go out
on your own and do your
own thing. It all depends
on how active you want to
be. The only time you have
to be ferried to shore is in
Cabo San Lucas, but it's
pretty easy to get on and
off the tenders.

On board ship there is
wonderful entertainment
and on the Christmas
cruise there is a special
show featuring the whole
staff, very inspiring! The
children’s program
received raves from the
parents and there is also
a Culinary Arts Center for
all kinds of cooking classes.
Check with your cruise agent, Holland America's website, or call your local AAA office if you are
a member and they will handle all the details for you. Ask for their “Holiday Cruise Brochure".

Holland America's Christmas Cruise to Mexico makes for a pleasant experience and one that
you will look back on as a "very good thing!"  Merry Christmas for 2010!
