Sailing Away to Alaska / Food and Entertainment on Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam Day #2 2024

[@G5coat1]

I like the chill vibe of the ship. Much more laid back than most.

[@B.A.A.SportsAngel]

You all seem so happy. I love seeing you enjoying your trip.

[@laurarose8140]

You guys look so happy on this cruise. I love seeing you guys all dressed up you look great. The views you showed were so beautiful. Thanks for a great video

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@React2This]

I felt so pampered by Holland America. You can be in the cheapest cabin on the ship and be treated like a VIP. And the free room service breakfast arrived right on time every morning - best way to wake up is with that knock on the door delivering coffee!

[@JS-id7ks]

Love your reference to Gods beautiful creation for us to enjoy. Yea his promise in the rainbow was to never destroy the world again with a flood . So beautiful!

[@kimenfield195]

What a beautiful send off you had with the rainbows! Those deserts look amazing!

[@terryhager933]

So glad you are getting to do this. Would be such a great birthday trip. Or just a get away. Always been my dream to go to Alaska but I doubt I will ever get to. But I am enjoying it thru your videos. Enjoy and stay safe.

[@wynonastroud6525]

[@karenk2831]

I think it's nice to dress up! The ship looks so lovely and the food looks pretty tasty! Your room looks bigger than the new years cruise. Whale watching sounds great! I think the Alaska Cruise on Holland America sounds like my cup of tea! Enjoying this vlog!

[@JohnEatsCheap]

Thanks again for taking us along. Been there a couple times and it’s beautiful!

[@carlavision6143]

I hope Dawn gets to see a whale. God bless ❤

[@Judy-fi7ce]

You guys really keep moving. No wonder you're tired at day's end. Beautiful cruise. You both looked so nice on dress-up night. It was sweet of you to tell Dawn she looked beautiful, Will. The whale sighting was exciting, tho brief. You'll see more I'm sure. I've never been on a cruise. I could not take the motion, as I get vertigo very easily with motion. So now I can be on a virtual cruise with you guys. It's very interesting. Thanks for taking us along.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you so much!

[@PatHammann]

Will, you look handsome in your suit@ 42:45

You both look very nice dressed up!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you! 😊

[@valerieh8882]

Going to Alaskan waters can be ruff at times. Yes its very cold at times especially at Glacier Bay, 😢dress warm. We took Princess Cruise line and ship was nice. We had music by the main pool, different entertainment in each bar lounge, many and different events we could enjoy. Food was good. Buffet was ok, but a buffet is what it is. Just find your happy places, hopefully whales will appear and enjoy each other. Stay warm and safe. Gods blessings.❤

[@koalabear6722]

Glad you enjoyed the day😊 Whales, such an amazing creation! Definitely a real blessing! 😊

[@delanomiller]

Amazing ship and food!! Can't wait for Dawn to see more whales. God bless.

More to come!

Very nice vlog Dawn and Will.

Thank you 😊

@@yankeeinthesouth Your welcome

[@ka1133]

I don’t like hard cookies! LOL 😂 I make the best homemade oatmeal raisin, gingerbread cookies, and what my mom used to call. Ginger Krinkle cookies. Also a great sugar cook with nice icing. And I’ll tell you something … these are cookies that will melt in your mouth and not break your teeth. Thanks for sharing this part of your cruise looking forward to the next video.

[@maryfettig3378]

You guys are looking sharp😊

[@pamelagrant2960]

Thank for sharing it looks like you Are having a great time ❤

[@lorilake7613]

I managed to fit two evening dresses, jewelry, dress shoes, swimsuit, undergarments, rain boots, sneakers, flipflops, socks, wool hat, warm gloves, two pair of blue jeans, long merino wool underwear, two sweaters, three nice t- shirts, nightshirt, rain top and pants and a down coat in my carry on . (My trip was the middle of September). My camera, binoculars, electronics, fanny pack and toiletries were in a waterproof backpack that fits under the airplane seat . Cruise packing is an art. PS, I liked the food, service and entertainment better on Princess Cruise lines back in 2015. I don't know how Princess is these days.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

😃❤️👍

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 🤗

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Do they charge you extra for room service? I didn’t know if there’s a service charge or up charge on the meal itself. What about dinner , if you had room service for that? How does tipping work when they bring luggage, room service, etc . Is it up to you to tip them exch time or is it added to bill at then? Lots of questions, ive never been on a cruise. Id love to one day! Im alone , so there’s that issue. I wouldn’t mind it, I’d just not want to go to the formal night or fancy dinner. I was wondering if you can have the nice dinner brought to room, when I saw it talk about room service.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

When you went to dinner, was not not part of your ticket price? I guess the regular buffet etc is, but not the one you went to in this video? I really enjoy this series of going along with yall.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

At the time when you book your cruise, it's all one price everything in including

[@smokymountainman4964]

All that food looks so good. It made me really hungry watching this.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 😋

[@GaryLetford]

One of the best things about Holland America and Celebrity is there solarium covered pools.

[@maryjaneallison1736]

For breakfast in the lido they make homemade crepes to order

[@Patrick-xx1vo]

High road is paying off!

[@charleslittleton6324]

Beautiful sail away, especially with the rainbow 🌈

[@cherylstaley1233]

I love how Dawn saw the whales and said they were going the same way as the ship Don’t think I would try that beet smoothie either Thank you for videos

It was greety

Miss guys thanks for showing vlog stay safe and warm

[@laurafoote214]

i can see there is a difference between a tropical cruise versus the alaskan, just for myself i can take the cold so i would go tropical, being from Chicago we are going to St. Augustine this July, i love the ocean.......i have to add i love your blue dress Dawn, my favorite color!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks for sharing!

[@laurafoote214]

*can"t take the cold,lol

Very nice work on videos guys keep up the good work

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks! Will do!

[@SmokyMountainBlessed]

we think we'd enjoy this cruise ship we are not into the boom boom boom music, a relaxing cruise ship is more our taste

[@CrystalBufford-k6x]

No breakfast served in your cabin?

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Stay tuned 😉

[@simplerelaxationasmr]

Hey Will, I know you have mentioned before that some times you get motion sickness. Does the rocking of the ship bother you? I have never been on a cruise before so I was just curious how rough the rocking is. Thanks!

[@ericsoderquist3969]

The ship has Chinese and Indian food as well. Why not try something different ? 😁😃

[@jackip2ava]

❤ I'm so SCARED to go on a Cruise.. I'm scared of getting sea sick..

[@yankeeinthesouth]

It's not bad

[@maryfettig3378]

Love how film so much of the nature around you. Others concentrate only on the ship and not so much of the scenery around them

[@piedmontpengwing]

I am enjoying seeing what it’s like being on a cruise ship. I have been on smaller vessels but not any luxury cruise ships. I am not a foodie. I am a let’s eat on the run type. It’s all about what I can see. However, I enjoy you guys!!!!

[@Amanda-jf3dk]

My 3 year old loves watching yall with me .. she says it's Will and Dawn ❤❤❤

Yay finally Dawn got to see her whale, I was excited to see it too. 💕

All I’ve wanted since returning from an Alaska cruise last year is to do a longer Alaska cruise. My dream cruise would be 14 day round trip on Holland America.
