Holland America Line, Eurodam - Northern Europe - 6/08

The pre-inaugural sailing (6/27-7/2) of HAL's brand new Eurodam - first of the Signature Class of ships - was a great trip on a gorgeous vessel. Slightly larger than the Vista class, she carries 2,104 guests and introduces several innovative features: Tamarind, the pan-Asian restaurant; private cabanas; spa staterooms; Canaletto, the Italian restaurant; and my personal favorite, Silk Den, the swanky ultra-lounge with a killer view.
