New everything…

Just a quick message to let everyone know that I got an email from the cruise line.
The email is a little confusing but as far as I can make out I am going to a new ship and a new cruise line. I am going to the Holland America ship MS Amsterdam. I know nothing about this line, the way they do things etc so it will be another learning experience. It also means another uniform and name badge to add to the collection.

Then a 14 day Caribbean cruise visiting more ports I havent been to including the Panama Canal.

Then I go to Alaska via the Panama Canal and the west coast of the US http://www.hollandamerica.com/dest/itinerary.do?selectedItin=20080424:A815:T8A022&dest=T
Then a few weeks in Alaska before my 6 months are up.

The cruises are broken up into individual legs that are sold as individual cruise but that is the basic itinerary. There are a lot of sea days, especially on that world cruise and HAL is an unknown place to work but it doesn’t look too bad.
