In Sept 2024 we sailed out of Whittier on the Nieuw Amsterdam. Spent night in Anchorage and caught the train the next morning. Train ride was awesome and beautiful scenery. First time sailing out of Whittier and would do it again. Thanks for sharing.
EECC TRAVELS are helping us plan our Alaska Cruise Tour May 2025 for our 50th Wedding Anniversary vacation. Thank you Alisa! Thank you for sharing with us you and Sophia’s vacation experience.
My son lived in the Begich Towers for over 10 years. We also kept our fishing boat right there in Whittier for over 15 years. Drove through the tunnel several times a week coming and going from Anchorage.
@@mmc9828 His unit was real nice, 2 bedroom 1 bath. Living room looked towards the back and could see the glacier and waterfalls on the mountain. There are several restaurants in town and the towers have a police station, grocery store, post office, and city hall all on the first floor of the building.
Silly question about that long bus ride- how often do they stop for bathroom breaks and is there a bathroom on the bus? Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
So glad to see embarkation, we are thinking about this trip and I was wondering when we would get to board. I like to make sure to have a window table for the dining room.
My daughter and I are doing the HAL land/cruise southbound next May on Nieuw Amsterdam. First time! (Not looking forward to that long bus ride.) I'm curious how the luggage is handled - is your large checked suitcase taken in Anchorage and kept until the cruise; and you use a carry-on & personal item for the Denali part?
Oh my you became a grandma at a very young age as Sophia is 11 years old. I wonder how old your daughter was when she became a Mom. The ship you are on is very old and not as nice as the other cruises you have taken. As far as a cruise from Alaska and I've never been, there are so many people who vlog from there so I find it so repetitious really.
It's so cool you can cruise with your granddaughter. What memories you're making. Have a great time.
Sophia sure enjoys her food! That girl cracks me up! ❤😂. What a fantastic trip.
Yay another Alaskan cruise! Your hair looks great btw. It all grew back nicely.

Awesome video!
I love sailing out of Whittier, my favorite port to cruise from.
Never been on a cruise before. It's so overwhelming.
We were on the Noordam last year in Alaska, hoping to do it again next year!

Are the units nice? Where do they eat?

Great video ❤❤❤❤
That ship gave off Carnival vibes
Dang......you didn't tell us which side of the bus is the "right" one for the trip from Anchorage to Whittier!!!
Enjoying this video. How was Sophie picked to go with you? Can you share how much this land and sea cruise cost? On my bucket list
Gosh we really wanna try Holland America
What date was this cruise taken? I don’t recall there being cold in the month of August.
I watch all your videos how long is the bus ride and how long was that train ride do think that's best thing land and sea tours in Alaska
Alaska is on my bucket list. Do you have a favorite cruise line for that destination?
It’s so cool how you always hang out but is there a reason she doesn’t go to the kids zone for the whole day like your own kids did?
why did the bus trip take 8 HOURS?
The trip is a little over 300 miles. It takes about 6 hours if you do not stop.
Wow 8 hours on a bus is a long time
❤👍
What is that Orange things Sophia has to wear? Why does she have to wear it?
Where is jason
Which cruise line is your favorite cruise line to cruise to Alaska? Everyone says Princess is the best? What do y'all think?
Who Dat!!!!!
Can I be your granddaughter?
