Thank you once again for providing the Daily Report.

Thanks for the report David. I am watching the AMSTERDAM with an eagle eye on this second week of an irregualr cruise. Things get bact to normal on Friday. I find it interesting that there will be three HAL ships in Juneau tomorrow.

Thanks so much for posting the locations David. Prinsendam is in Iceland. I wonder how cold it is there?

I wonder if this means the Zuiderdam will have to tender again? My parents were nervous about that happening on their sailing.

I would love to be on a DAM ship now!!!!

Amen!

Since the Zuiderdam and Westerdam are "regulars" in Juneau on each Monday this season and the AMSTERDAM is not I would think if any ship had to tender it would be the AMSTERDAM. However, the AMSTERDAM gets in earlier than the other two, I don't know.
The Harbor Master will make the final call on that one.

Amen!

Are you going on the 14 day Amsterdam cruise again next year???

I do not know yet--we will see!

I do not know. I can tell you this. The AMSTERDAM is moored and tied down at the dock in Alaska. The Zuiderdam or Westerdam usually docks on the edge of town and you have to take a bus to get over to the other teminals. We will see--perhaps all three will be docked.

I can see the Amsterdam docked on the Juneau webcam, too. I was just checking the Marine Traffic website and it looks like the Westerdam is on its way toward Juneau, with Zuiderdam not too far behind. I'm not familiar with how things are usually done in Juneau and how many ships the main area can accommodate, so it'll be interesting to see how it shakes out.

I also realized this morning that I forgot to explain to my parents about ship time vs. port time, so hopefully they'll figure it out onboard and get to their independent excursion without any issues. I probably just worry too much, but it's their first cruise and I really want them to enjoy it.

In case anyone other than me is actually interested in what is happening in Juneau today, here's an update: the Westerdam is anchored in the bay and the Zuiderdam is pulling up to the dock right now.

On HAL in Alaska, there is no difference between ship and port time. There would have been a notice on their bed, a notice in the Daily Explorer, and a mention by the CD that clocks were to be changed. I'm sure your parents managed just fine.

HAL changes clocks to port time in almost every port they visit. The only usual exception is Puerto Vallarta. We also stayed on ship time in Murmansk, but most people don't need to concern themselves with that port.

Not very cold, about 12 C but with an occasional chilly rain. Here are a couple of shots of the Maasdam from the Elegant Explorer.

This is great to know! Thanks for easing my mind :)

[Wayfairers]

Thanks for the info! I love seeing where the ships are... always amazes me to think someone somewhere is having to manage all the itineraries! Thankful that isn't me! Much rather be the person enjoying the cruise!

Thanks (as always) for posting!!! :)
