Adventure traveler and Dutch TV personality Charlotte Van Hoorn was on board Zaandam for an Alaska cruise and will be sharing her adventure with us.
A long layover allowed time to hike to Exit Glacier in Kenai Fjords National Park, as well as take an “Ididaride” on a dogsled with wheels behind some of Mike Seavey’s training team. His A team won this year’s Ididarod Dog Sled Race! How cool. Enjoyed watching the training techniques and the demonstration of how they are dressed and cared for during the Race. And, yes, puppies to cuddle…
Best end to any day aboard was another great meal at The Pinnacle Grill. Been to lots of great steakhouses, but HAL chefs consistently provide great beef, perfectly grilled. They use double sided grills over 1,000 degrees for searing. Delicious!
Great photos & video. Looks like quite a unique adventure!
