Holland America Line Koningsdam | Alaska Cruise | Ketchikan | Tamarind Restaurant

A day spent mostly shopping. Tamarind speciality restaurant. Orange party.

[@nancydegener9438]

I love Ketchikan, especially the smoked salmon and native inlay jewelry and mammoth jewelry. Tamarind is my fave specialty dining on HAL

[@andyandkirstie]

We loved all the shops with locally made gifts.

[@DaveStroble]

Love the Lumberjack show! Glad you had the chance to experience it. Two desserts is totally acceptable on a cruise!! Great Video.

[@FrancoisD551]

Andy, Kirstie. Another wonderful video. Always great image quality, beautiful scenery, and perfect music selection. Well done you.

[@andyandkirstie]

Many thanks!

[@raebirchall7896]

Enjoying these vlogs so much Ketchikan was the best part of our trip as we flew out to an island to see bears which was amazing, it is our 50th anniversary in 2025 and you have made our minds up that Alaska will be our anniversary trip.

Great vlog Andy and Kristie!! such a lovely cruise!! enjoying the vlogs !! keep up the excellent work.😊

[@suzanneobrien5279]

Great video as usual ❤ The quality of the music on this cruise has been fantastic - though I did think there was actually a funky line-dance going on for the first few minutes of the band 😂

[@AntonioMadruga-tn7zj]

[@andyandkirstie]

The food looks good . The food looks flavorful.

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah it was good.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Coffee and two mains for breakfast, you are my hero again ❤. Loved your music choice, lots of foot tapping going on in chez lynch. I thought that was a boiled egg in your cocktail at first 😂

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah, they were a bit tight when it comes to food, so needed two for sure!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

@@andyandkirstie Of course small portions , yes that the reason :-) ( still my hero)

[@andyandkirstie]

😆

[@tatjanaanderlic7212]

[@cherifurr3935]

Loved Alaska!

[@andyandkirstie]

Yes, we loved it too!

[@janemayhew1442]

And great band and best songs😊

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah, they were great.

[@dennisdalessio8238]

Ketchikan is our favorite port in Alaska. We have done the Lumberjack show and find it fun and quirky. We like to shop here also as many of the ports have the same type of shops but find some different shops here that we like.

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah Ketchikan was great for shopping. We did most of ours here. The lumberjack show was great too.

[@MrPants1970]

That band was very good!

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah they were brilliant

[@evabloecher]

Your videos are sooo good and interesting. I think that I can eat a lot but I think I have found my superiors (don't know if you use that word in such a connection, but I try!). The trip to Alaska must have been fantastic and so beautiful. Looking forward to see the next video. All the best to you both.

[@andyandkirstie]

Yes, we can eat a lot but try not to at home! Alaska was amazing!

[@evabloecher]

I am so amazed to see how many different restaurants there are at the cruise ships and not least how wonderful the food looks as well. So I do understand that you want to try as much as possible. Thank you for your videos.

[@RobinH8869]

This is your best series yet. Great, honest reporting and lovely photography. If you did it again would you do Holland America or Princess?

[@andyandkirstie]

We'd do either, because we like Princess, although first choice for Alaska would be Holland. We think they have the best timings and berths.

[@chiefjoseph8154]

Indoor smoking! Hard no.

[@andyandkirstie]

Agree, however its generally in the casino and we don't do gambling.

[@crumyadventures]

Love the videos and glacier bay was outstanding What dates were you there? Why camera and lens are you using for the videos and distance pictures?

[@andyandkirstie]

We sailed on May 6th from Vancouver this year. I was using my Sony A7SIII with a Sony 70-200 f4 G lens.

[@jonesboy201]

You guys can eat lol. How do you keep so slim ? Another great video. Any Celebrity cruises planned ?

[@andyandkirstie]

We treat ourselves more on holiday than we do normally! No plans to do Celebrity yet.

[@MD-px4tg]

I ordered 2 bento boxes from Tamarind for room service a couple weeks ago on our HAL trip. It was the best food I had the entire trip….

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah it was a good meal we had in there. Good quality, just didn't feel full when we left.

[@annaheh2925]

great video..QUESTION what month were you traveling to alaska?

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks, we sailed out of Vancouver on 6th May.
