Arrival in Boston

I've been awake since 5am, and Paul had had a rough night, so we are a bit bleary-eyed.

Immigration officials came on board but over an hour later than expected. Guests and crew disembarking the Volendam today have to see the officials. Due to the officials' lateness, a few guests were not happy at all because they had flights to catch. The poor ship's staff were berated, but it had nothing to do with it. One missing guest had to be called to come to immigration but he or she felt it was unnecessary and wanted to speak to the documentation manager 🙄. Sadly, certain people feel 'entitled', and things don't apply to them. I think the person came in the end as Immigration officials don't take any nonsense even from their fellow countrymen.

Staff eventually went through immigration too.

Our taxi to the airport is at 1pm so we are having breakfast and relaxing on the ship until then.Read more
