Today we are leaving for Park City for a week! But, I wanted to let you know that I talked to a friend in our ward today that went on the exact same cruise we are going on. They got back two weeks ago. Here's some things she said:
*Get on the boat early to avoid lines and you can explore the ship and get your bearings before you actually leave.
*On Monday find the naturalist named Kathy to give you inside info about what you will see in Alaska.
*Bring jackets. It was especially cold on the morning that you go through Tracy Arm. They got to the deck at 5:00 am to see the sights and were glad that they did so that they had something to lean on. It got crowded. It was great views of glaciers and they stood there for almost four hours because they didn't want to miss anything.
* 17th floor has a disco where it is the best place to see where you are going. (windows all around)
*They booked all their exursions when they got on the boat. Seemed safer to them although other people were being adventureous and just taking off to find whatever!
*These opinions on the exursions are from her and the people that she talked to on the boat.
Definately do the train ride at Ketchikan (everyone's favorite)
Don't do any gardens at Victoria, they did a bus ride in town and it was okay.
Don't do any whale watching, everyone that did that was disappointed. Don't pan for gold or do the fish hatchery.
People seemed to really like the Mendenhall Glacier tour and hike to a waterfall. Our friends did the totem pole and lumberjack show at Skagway and said it was well worth it.
I think that is about it.
Happy 4th of July!
