Holland America Alaskan I am going in late September
on the alaskan cruise with my
family. I have been cruising
once before and I got a little
queasy one night, but the
waters were pretty choppy that
night. I was wondering if
anyone else has been during
this time and how rough the
waters are this time of year.
I know that we are only taking
the inside passage one way and
down to sitka and around on
the way back........

I have been on 23 cruises to Alaska and everything was GREAT. The inside passage is between land masses so there is no rough water. Coming back the outside passage you are more into open water and may see rougher water. However with todays ships you feel very little movement. There is plenty to see both in ports of call & wildlife from the ship. If you love nature you will enjoy this cruise. If you like meeting people from all over the world you will like this cruise. If you like seeing amazing scenery you will like this cruise. If you what to buy your family & friends souvenirs then in Sept. all shops in port have 50% off sales & you will like this cruise. If you like life,fresh, people waiting on you, trying new foods, have fun etc........................... .............................. ..... Then you will like this cruise. Everyone takes alittle something different from each cruise. I beleive this is a cruise everyone should take at least once. Some are nuts like me and keep going back. However a Cruise Vacation is the best. ENJOY. |

Are the cooking demonstrations Also, how much does it cost to
take the hands on class?

The Culinary Arts Center demo's are worth the money and the time. If you take the open class it is free for the demo. The prepare the item for you right there and you get the receipe. I would suggest that if you are not a huge Culinary person then you may not want to buy the sessions. The group public sessions are just as good. |

I went on this cruise about ten years ago. I doubt if much has changed. Holland America is a five star line. You will have the most deluxe food, service, and entertainment. You will have five days at sea coming and going. When you get back it will seem like it went too fast. There is a wide variety of things to so do. The clubs are beautiful and the music terrific. I have always wanted to take this cruise again. Book some tours in Hawaii. Go to the Polynesian Cultural Center, but do not have the Luau there. It was awful. Trust me on this. Be sure to visit the USS Arizona. It is a very moving experience. You are going to have the time of your life. I've been on eight cruises and taken dozens of trips around the US, Canada, and Mexico. My Hawaiian cruise was the highlight of them all. |
