Take, for example, a look at the Holland America's one day cruises leaving from Vancouver, British Columbia for Seattle, Washington, on Sept 23, 2009.
Cabin prices start at just $49!
The ship itself is called the Volendam.
The Volendam has an alternative restaurant, a third staircase for convenient access to public rooms and a children's play room, as well as more of the popular mini-suites with verandahs. The Volendam's predominant theme is flowers--from the 17th to the 21st centuries--featured in the ship's artwork and interior design elements. There are ten passenger decks and a three-deck oval atrium. The atrium is punctuated by a monumental glass sculpture by Luciano Vistosi, one of Italy's leading contemporary glass artists.
The beautiful garden theme of the Volendam includes an artful floral motif throughout the ship's spacious public rooms and elegant staterooms. "Flowers" can be found in abundance on her public decks and in unexpected places in the forms of floral fabrics and tapestries, as well as huge vases of tropical floral arrangements and chrysanthemums. This beautiful ship accommodates 1,440 guests.
In addition, the ship's public spaces are full of artwork from pre-Columbian fetishes and sculptures to Renaissance-era fountains imported from Italy. At the heart of the ship an elegant sculpture by Luciano Vistosi, inspired by the myriad of moods and colors of a kaleidoscope.
