Cruising Alaska: July 2007

We got very lucky with the weather - not many Ketchikan sailaways see the outside pool area busy. My biggest complaint about the Amsterdam is that it isn't sun/fun friendy - getting a seat in a hot tub was pretty well impossible and a deck chair in the sun wasn't usually much better (every chair in this photo was filled a few minutes later). I recognize, though, that this was not typical Alaska weather nor typical HAL passengers, so that criticism may not be justified for most Amsterdam cruises.
