Welcome to March, cruisers! How has 2013 been for ya so far? We're nearly a quarter into the year and I can say I'm seriously trying to catch my breath because I've got some cruisetacular exhales to make onto March's cruise ship of the month, m/s Amsterdam of Holland America Line!

Smoothing out waves since October 2000, m/s Amsterdam is no stranger to any cruise vacation lover - especially the seasoned HAL fans. Her size is more than ideal; speaking of, she is just over 62,000 gross tons, 780 feet long and has room for the perfect passenger size of about 1,400 people. And to make the experience on her even more thrilling, she sails with a max speed of about 23 knots! She's a mid-sized cruise ship with an intimate feel and many have come to love this theme many of the HAL ships have and once you sail her, you'll see just why!

Want to see the world from one of the most intimate vessels around? Then this ship the perfect for you! She is currently on her world cruise and actually a new segment leaves March 11th (so there's still time to book)! From Capetown, to San Diego and all ports in between m/s Amsterdam is taking berths by storm form bow to stern. Interested in a less sea-extensive adventure? Then be sure book one of her Alaskan cruises this summer leaving from Vancouver, Canada round-trip.

m/s Amsterdam is a ship ready to dazzle and wow ya. Have you heard what she's packin'? For starters, she has a three-story atrium that will definitely give your neck and jaw a great exercise! She has the Digital Workshop powered by Windows which helps satisfy your social networking fix, some of the best culinary arts demonstrations sailing at twenty knots and eating options galore - any cruiser's secret lover... food! Don't worry, she's even kid friendly with programs like Club HAL, The Loft and The Oasis for your junior cruisers ages three to seventeen.
