Holland America cruise line... often referred to as the old peoples cruise line. What became apparent to us on our first venture with Holland America is the different style of the ship, the relaxed and calm atmosphere and attentiveness of the staff. Yes, we were much younger than the average passenger but nonetheless we enjoyed our cruise, the food, the staff and especially the balcony room we got for the second stage of our journey with them. We set sail from Sydney heading south toward Tasmania. From there we visited Kangaroo island, Adelaide, Port Lincoln, Melbourne and Eden. We back to backed with the next trip via Sydney travelling north again to Queensland, the great barrier reef and several islands in Papua New Guinea.
