Homer to Seward
28 Haziran 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌬 97 °F
Today we left Homer to head to Seward and then to the ship. We made a stop to an art studio which was owned by a local artist and his works. He had many lovely paintings. After we headed for lunch at a nice soup and sandwich shop. Then onward to the ship. When we arrived we passed an eagle nest. It was a double decker condo style nest. The eagles must have been using it for many years for it to have gotten so large. Arrived at the ship at 3:00, said our goodbyes to Paul and Craig, got checked in and onboard. We found our cabin, met our cabin steward Romeo. Then took a tour of the ship. After, we found our luggage had arrived so unpacked. Went for a drink in the spinnaker lounge then dinner, then a show with a comedian who was very good. We called it a night. We get limited internet time so posting will be as we can.Okumaya devam et

29 Haziran 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 99 °F
Today we head for Hubbard glacier..maybe..it’s been very foggy so far. Found out the reason why Veldeze was cancelled from our itinerary. Apparently the glacier there is threatening to release its entire face and if that goes, it would create a dangerous wave and ice in the bay. So for now all cruise ships are staying clear.

Well we tried to go in to Hubbard glacier but the pilot and captain said it was too foggy plus there was a lot of ice in the bay. So no pictures today. we did go to a show which was very well done .They did an around the world song and dance. They preformed many dance styles and sang in many languages. This troop was much better than past cruises.Okumaya devam et

Skagway
1 Temmuz 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ 🌧 52 °F
Skagway Alaska. Gateway to the gold rush. Another rainy and dreary day. Shopped around the town before our tour. Typical Cruise port with all the cruise owned shops and high end jewelry. Met up with our tour. First stop Klondike gold panning. I got $13 worth and Sue got $ 9. It gave you an appreciation of how much work you have to do to make any money.
Then we hopped a train to the White Pass which is the route all the miners took to get into the gold fields. Beautiful scenery. The trip lasted about an hour and a half. We ended up crossing into Canada into the Yukon Territory. We took a bus back into town. Shopped a little more then headed back onboard. Had dinner then a show, Blazing Boots which was good also. They have a good troop on this ship.

Juneau
2 Temmuz 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F
Today we head into Juneau. We had to tender today as there were 5 other ships in port. Wandered the shops for a bit before catching the tour. Got my little moose here. The tour today started off at Mendenhall glaciers . Though we couldn’t get close to the glacier it was still amazing how blue the ice was. We did walk out to Nugget Falls. That was well worth the 2mile walk.
Then it was off to do some whale watching. We got onto a two story boat. It was all enclosed except for the upper deck which had open areas..the first whales we encountered was Sophia and her calf. The calf was most entertaining. Started of by leaping out the water a couple of times. At one time it breached right next to the boat. He even laid on its back and waved it flipper. We saw a couple of seals. We even saw an eagle swoop down on a seal and try to steal its fish. Spent a long time watching the whales with lots of video.
After our return from whales, we didn’t have any time left for town, so we caught the tender back to the ship. Had dinner then caught two shows tonight. Aaron Shaw vocalist, and then comedian Spencer James adult show. Both were very good.Okumaya devam et

Today is our final port of Ketchikan. Norwegian purchased its own port outside of town. Best thing is that in town, anything you purchase is charged 14% tax whereas outside of town it’s 2%.
They have an entire warehouse full of merchandise. We first went to the lumberman’s show in town. Followed by a trip out to Saxon village where we saw totem pole and learned a little about the local customs. We then came back to town and walked down Creek street. The famous red light district. Went back to the ship had dinner then went to magic show. Finally we ended up at the spinnaker lounge where they were playing broadway show tunes. We first saw some whales, then at two different times we saw dolphins running along the sides of the ship.Okumaya devam et

Today we leave the ship and say goodbye to everyone we met along the way. First we took a cab to our hotel to drop off our bags as our room was not ready. Went for a walk along the waterfront then went to meet our food tour. Turned up to be a no show on the tour operator so we got a refund. Decided to walk to Stanley park and back. Ate an early dinner along the way back and finally checked into our hotel.
Going to stay put for the nights as we have a very early start tomorrow . Need to get up at 315am to catch the flight home.Okumaya devam et

Would have loved to stay in that room a few more days but home is calling . Had to get up at 3am to catch our flight. One thing that is nice is that Vancouver airport also contains US customs so we didn’t have to do that in Minneapolis. We got home at noon. Kathryn picked us up at the airport.

Than I got my greetings…Okumaya devam et
