As far as I’m concerned, there is no better way to ring in the new year than on a cruise! Even if it means eating too much for dinner and falling asleep by 8pm.
If you’re lucky enough to be onboard a Holland America ship this year (as we are!), here’s the special New Year’s Eve dinner menu to be served in the main dining room. Go ahead and ask for two of everything, you’re celebrating! Just don’t count on me to wake you up before the ball drops. Zzzzzzzzzz.
And with that…
Class Dismissed!
