Norwegian Wind Cruise

The photos below were taken during a September 2001 cruise to Glacier Bay aboard Norwegian Cruise Line's "Norwegian Wind"

Above - National Park rangers set up shop during the cruise into Glacier Bay.  This is the Norwegian Wind's Observatory Lounge.

Above - Seen from our suite on Norwegian Wind, Holland America's Volendam is in background as both ships head into Icy Strait (just south of Glacier Bay).

We are aboard Norwegian Wind, in Glacier Bay, heading south after leaving John Hopkins Inlet/Glacier.  Holland America's "Volendam" is on her way into the inlets.  She is dwarfed by the mountain ranges above Glacier Bay.  While the Bay is in Alaska, some of the peaks seen are just inside Canada's Yukon.

We have included a number of photos of the Volendam, in order to give you a sense of the size of the peaks surrounding the Inside Passage, and in the above photo, Glacier Bay.
