All of HAL's ship are "Dam Ships" - Westerdam, Oosterdam, Nieuw Amsterdam. You'll get used to it.

If you are interested in seeing loads of photos of our ship since her completion, go to Dutch by Association. Also, be sure to check out the review by John Heald written during and after her maiden voyage. John is the Senior Cruise Director for Carnival Cruise Lines and he has a pretty good sense of humor.

The photo taken by Rick Duval can be seen here at the Holland America Line Nieuw Amsterdam Blog.
