ALASKA MARTIAL ARTS CRUISE
7 nights departing June 13, 2009 on
Holland America's Zuiderdam
This is a 5 Star Ship!


We will be training every day on the ship and on the Glaciers (Is that cool or What?) More info coming soon!!!

Alaska cruises have surged in popularity in recent years, and demand to see America's last unspoiled frontier continues to grow. If you decide to cruise Alaska you can see snowcapped peaks, mighty glaciers, steep fjords and such wildlife as whales, black bears, brown bears, bald eagles, sea otters and seals. You'll also find historic gold rush towns, Native American art and culture, Russian heritage and plenty of outdoor adventure. Because of this region's popularity and short season, the per-diem prices for Alaska cruises are among the highest in the cruise industry.

Alaska cruises are generally divided into two types, Inside Passage cruises and Gulf of Alaska cruises. The Inside Passage has been the traditional way to cruise Alaska, with most ships sailing round-trip from Vancouver or Seattle, through glacier country as far north as Skagway or Juneau. Gulf of Alaska cruises cover more territory as they travel from Vancouver through the Inside Passage and up to Seward/Anchorage (or the reverse). Airfare for a Gulf of Alaska cruise is generally more expensive because Anchorage is so far north.

We had paid ($1700) for a Helicopter & Glacier Walkabout to take us up and land on the Glacier. We were going to do a workout on the Glacier in Juneau. Right before we were to take off for the Glacier the Flight was cancel because of weather. We took a bus up to the Glacier and hiked up to the front of it but did not have time to clime it for it was time to go back to our ship. If you ever get a chance to go on a Alaska Cruise you should it was Great , I loved it and will be going next year. I hope to land on the Glacier or have time to hike up to it.... ;)
