Liam’s Holiday Adventure with Liaise
Liam had an unforgettable holiday adventure with Liaise this summer as he set off on a 5-day cruise aboard the beautiful P&O Ventura, with support from Pier and Mihai. The trip began on August 23 at Southampton Harbour, where Liam arrived full of excitement. Once on board, he explored the ship, settled in, and took part in a safety drill to learn about the ship’s alarms and emergency procedures. That evening, the Ventura set sail toward Rotterdam.
Exploring Rotterdam and Amsterdam
On August 24, Liam and the team arrived in Rotterdam in the afternoon. They took the opportunity to explore the city, and Liam enjoyed sightseeing around the modern buildings and local landmarks.
The next day, August 25, Liam’s adventure continued with a train trip to Amsterdam. He spent the day walking through the city’s bustling centre, admiring the famous canals, beautiful streets, and even visiting the Red Light District. After a full day of exploring, he returned to the ship just in time for departure. This part of his holiday adventure with Liaise allowed Liam to experience new places, navigate public transport, and gain confidence in exploring independently.
Fun and Relaxation on Board
August 26 was a full day at sea, packed with fun and relaxation. Liam shopped, relaxed, and watched incredible live shows on board. The entertainment on the Ventura was excellent, providing the perfect balance after sightseeing.
Finally, on August 27, the cruise arrived back in Southampton. Liam returned home with a wealth of memories, stories to share, and photos to look back on. His holiday adventure with Liaise was truly one to remember.
