Yvon and Cees Kloppenburg were on a back-to-back western Mediterranean cruises on board Ryndam. They chronicled their cruising experience for us on the blog. Here is their last post. Enjoy!

The Netherlands, our home country, has a long history with Indonesia, and it just so happens that is the country where many of Ryndam’s crew members are from. Indonesian cuisine has always stolen our hearts. A special Indonesian rijsttafel lunch was served during this cruise and we very much enjoyed it.

Ryndam always looks bright and shiny on the outside. We usually do not meet the crew members who take care of this. This photo is a tribute to all those who take care of the exterior of Ryndam.
