Bridge players on HAL

[dkolyer]

I'll be going on Ryndam Oct. 19 with two women who love to play bridge.
Are they likely to find bridge players on board?

the question of whether or not the line has organized duplicate games
depends on how many days the ship is just at sea. No games whenever the
ship is in port (or at anchor), as the presumption is that most of the
passengers are off of the ship. My experience has been that the duplicate
games are in the afternoon; so the passengers are on their own in the
evening. Suggest asking HAL if they are going to have a tournament
director/teacher for the cruise.

There will most ceratinally be people for them to play with!

There are non-smoking rooms and places, but as far as I can remember from my
time on HAL, there are many places for you to smoke. I believe that they also
sell cigars, but as I don't smoke I couldn't tell you about the quality of
selection. But knowing HAL you won't be dissappointed!
Enjoy your cruise!

I found 3 tables of bridge on the Westerndam last year. Each day a time
will be posted. Also there were a sign-up sheet and people posted there
room numbers time.. I enjoyed thebridge especially during the days at sea
