Did you have a favorite port? This will be our first time to Alaska! I have a lot of research to do - plus I'm trying to decide if I want to spend extra time in Vancouver or Seattle.

We loved the ZipRider in Icy Strait Point and we'll probably do that again, but the rest of the port was just meh. Hubbard Glacier is incredible, so that is one of the best days. Not sure what we'll do in the rest of the ports yet. Maybe something new.
Did they offer the smaller boat excursion at Hubbard Glacier like they have for Tracy Arm?
We are excited to do the ZipRider. I hear Icy Straight has some of the best whale watching, we are planning on doing that as well.
No excursions that I know of at Hubbard. DW wanted to do the small boat excursion at Tracy Arm, but it wasn't offered on the 9-night. Wouldn't have mattered anyway, because we didn't even go there.
We are planning on flying into Seattle and spending a couple days there. Then taking the train up to Vancouver and spending a couple days there before the cruise!
Which side of the train should we sit on to get the views, I'm assuming the left side?The train from Seattle to Vancouver was fine, but really only half of the train has a good view out the window. We, of course, were on the other side.
We also got delayed just outside of Vancouver by a freight train in our way. Ugh.
Yup.Which side of the train should we sit on to get the views, I'm assuming the left side?
