On July 18, we headed north from Seattle aboard Holland America's Eurodam for a week of incredible scenery, wildlife and Alaskan adventures. Before we set sail, Diane F. of Rio Rancho, NM got a head start on her bucket list with a visit to the Space Needle. On a clear day, this 605-foot landmark offers breathtaking bird's-eye views of Seattle, Puget Sound and even Mount Rainier in the distance.

On our first sea day, Linda B. from Mesa, AZ kicked off her cruise with the perfect dose of peace and quiet, getting up early to practice tai chi. After a day full of icebreaker games, lunch and trivia, we headed to the Rolling Stone Lounge for a live band performance. Jim M. from Peabody, MA decided the audience needed a little extra participation and got a wave going through the crowd. There was never a dull moment with Jim around!

On our way to Juneau, we experienced one of those moments that reminded us exactly why we booked an Alaska cruise. As we sailed through Stephens Passage, Kathy M. from Palm Coast, FL shared that she already spotted a whale while enjoying breakfast. She wasn't kidding! Before long, at least eight whales had been spotted from the ship, including one that put on a show with a dramatic breach. Michelle N. and Cary G. from Livermore, CA didn't have to leave their balcony to get in on the action. Talk about a great way to start the day!

Juneau kept the bucket-list moments coming. Adam P. from Long Beach, CA explored glaciers aboard a 12-person canoe, while Steve B. from Prior Lake, MN tried his luck panning for gold -- and struck it! Christy W. from Rapid City, ND chose a sweeter souvenir, stopping at a local chocolate shop for a "Husky Paw," a turtle-style chocolate candy with pecans and caramel. John I. from Prescott, AZ took to the skies for a helicopter and glacier adventure.

Our scenic sailing continued through Glacier Bay National Park and Icy Strait as local park rangers boarded the ship to educate guests about the massive ice formations and wildlife in the area. Christina N. from Burleson, TX had the right idea by sampling "Erwtensoep," a traditional Dutch split pea soup served by Holland America staff on the bow -- perfect for warming up while viewing the glaciers.

Sitka brought another unforgettable wildlife moment when members of our group visited the Alaska Raptor Center and witnessed a rehabilitated bald eagle being released back into the wild. What a sight!

In Ketchikan, we spent the afternoon at Saxman Native Village, where towering totem poles told stories from generations past. Many of the poles were restored or re-carved by Tlingit artists in the 1930s, with elder carvers teaching a younger generation both the art of carving and the ancestral stories represented by the poles. Back on board, our Singles gathered for a fun game of $1 Bingo, where Jory J. from Mesa, AZ won the warm-up round, and Penny C. from North Wales, PA claimed the jackpot!

One of the most meaningful activities of the cruise was Holland America's On Deck for a Cause program, where guests donated to Alaska Geographic, the nonprofit education partner for Alaska's parks, forests, refuges and conservation lands. Organized by Jackie S. from Richmond, BC and Terri W. from Houston, TX, several of our solo travelers participated in the 5K walk around the ship's outer deck, including Craig E. from O'Fallon, IL, Keith H. from Caseyville, IL and Jeff K. from Wichita Falls, TX. And who else showed up in support? Our friends, the humpbacks! As we walked to support wildlife, three or four whales could be seen playing in the distance. It was a moment none of us will ever forget.

By our final sea day, Alaska still wasn't finished stealing the show. Right in the middle of our Battle of the Sexes competition, more whales were spotted from the ship. Our fun and games came to a screeching halt as guests ran to the windows for one final glimpse of these majestic creatures.

After one last Farewell Cocktail Party and an evening in Victoria, it was time to say goodbye to the Eurodam. From the cruise ship to the wildlife and the new friends, Alaska gave us plenty of memories to bring home. Thank you to everyone who sailed with us and helped make another Vacations To Go Singles adventure one to remember. Until next time!
