Sunday/ a Pacific Ocean crossing 🛳️

The MS Noordam from Holland America Line arrived at Pier 91 at the Port of Seattle at 7 am this morning, completing her 36-night crossing of the Pacific Ocean from Sydney, Australia. 

She departed from Pier 91 at 4 pm this afternoon, for 7-day round trip to Ketchikan, Alaska.
So we will see her again next Sunday. 

The itinerary of MS Noordam included Melanesia & Polynesia, French Polynesia, followed by a 5-day crossing to Hawaii, and then on to Seattle.

Looking out at Pier 91 from the Elliott Bay Marina.
Look for the Space Needle on the left, and for Mount Rainier, to the right of MS Noordam.
At 4 o’clock MS Noordam sounded her horn three times, and pulled back from the pier.
As far as I could tell there was no tug boat in attendance.
Turning to head to the north of Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
Bon voyage!
