Mardi Gras at Sea on Fat Tuesday!


Every year during our World Cruise, the CEO of Holland America Line sails with us for a special celebration. This year our theme was Mardi Gras at sea. Our crew spends many hours planning this huge event. The carpenters and deck department transformed our Lido pool area into what appeared to be a paddle wheel steamship complete with “porches”, a Dixieland band played, a caricature artist cartooned many people, there was a tarot card reader busy predicting futures, and many people wore theme clothing. Our entertainment department dressed in costumes and paraded around often and the drinks flowed freely. Food stands were set up around the edge of the pool area with some delicious New Orleans style food.
