Back from the Cruise


    We're back from our 1-week Alaskan cruise.  We departed Seattle last Sunday night on the above piece of floating luxury, and got back in town at midnight last night.

    This was our first cruise, and it was definitely a memorable experience.  The legs of the cruise were :
Day 1  :  get on board.  explore the ship.
Day 2  :  at sea.  rough water.
Day 3  :  Ketchikan
Day 4  :  Juneau
Day 5  :  Skagway
Day 6  :  at sea.  kinda rough water.
Day 7  :  at sea until 6:00 PM.  then Victoria, Canada.
Day 8  :  disembark.  in Seattle with friends.  fly home.

   We didn't do any of the tours.  Seattle and Victoria were sunny.  All the Alaska stops were overcast, with occasional light rain.  Well, it is a rainforest, after all.  And since we were coming from Phoenix summer weather, we dug the cold and the gray and the wetness.

    We took tons of pictures.  If I get ambitious. I'll put 'em up on a blog.  Along with "30 things I learned on the cruise"
