Alaska Cruise/Glacier Bay National Park

Glacier Bay National Park

Two park rangers came on board today while we spent the day in Glacier Bay National Park.  They made what we were seeing come to life by explaining the glaciers and the wildlife we saw.  They would also answer all the questions that everyone had.  The glaciers didn’t look that big but they [...]

Alaska Cruise-Mendenhall Glacier

After our whale watching adventure our tour took us to Mendenhall Glacier.  The view was breathtaking; but best of all while we were walking on a trail by a creek we noticed everyone was on this little bridge.  They were looking down and pointing and passing binoculars around.  Then we saw what they were looking [...]

Alaska Cruise/ Whale Watching In Juneau

We docked in Juneau about noon so I had time to take another digital workshop class before we arrived in Juneau.  We went on a small boat so there were only 6 of us on  the boat.  There were binoculars furnished on the boat as well as soft drinks and water. 
Whenever someone would see a whale they [...]

Alaska Cruise/ Juneau

We got up extra early to watch for whales and other wildlife from the ship.  It was a little foggy but someone would scream out ‘there is one’ and everyone would scurry over to where they were pointing; like the whale was going to sit there and wait for everyone to be able to see him.  It [...]

Alaska Cruise/Day at Sea

We had a wonderful, much needed, restful day at sea.  Now that doesn’t mean there was nothing to do.  There were more things to do than we could possibly do.  So we had to pick and choose. 
We took the ‘Behind the Scenes Kitchen Tour’.  We found out that on our ship 8500 pounds of meat, [...]

Alaska Cruise/On Board the Zaandam

We took a taxi from our hotel to Pier 91 where the Zaandam was waiting for us.  Checking in at the pier went very smooth with a very short line.  After on board we explored the ship a little and then it was time to set sail.  We watched as the Seattle skyline dissappeared behind [...]

Why Would You Go to Puerto Rico?

Well, Puerto Rico is as diverse a destination as you can imagine.
It is an exotic Caribbean group of islands, yet still part of the United States.  So you do not need a passport if you are a U.S. citizen.
If you like adventure, Puerto Rico is the place for you.  You can hike El Yunque National Rainforest which is [...]

Alaska Cruise/Seattle First

We arrived early at the airport so there was plenty of time to check our bags and go through security without any problems.  And I was very proud of ourselves as we were able to only check one bag and have one carry on each for our 8 night trip.  Feel free to contact me  if [...]
