I finally convinced my wife to do an Alaskan cruise after becoming bored with east/west/Bahamas. We have done other "unique" cruises but it has been awhile.
It will be just us (Kevin & Lisa); our daughter is an adult and won't be joining us. We live in Orlando, FL.
"So funny that we will be taking heavy jackets on a cruise" is right! We were on the first Mexican Riviera out of L.A. after the Alaskan season and it was weird to see the blanket carts on deck.
Hope everyone enjoys the planning! We are visiting friends in Seattle so our planning is more intense as we plan to fly into Seattle and use ground transportation to Vancouver. Most likely the train.
If anyone has hotel tips for Vancouver I would love to hear them. We may be able to arrange a pre-cruise meet up the night before.
At least we crossed in the 400s for days left- 500 was daunting. I am sure we will do something before; we have a placeholder itching for a booking
