We have been with Royal Caribean for our last few times up there and are booked with them again in August 07, This wil be our first trip in the summer time, we are hoping to see more bear and salmon runs, then we have ny going in late May and early June ( although some what less expensive then ) we can noyt wait to get there this August.
I do have a couple of DO NOT DO'S as IMO they were a waste of $$$.

We will not take the whale watching tour again , as although nice < all we really saw were whale tails, and another tour that we will not do agin is the Alaskan Kart Adventure ( sorta a dune buggy 4X4 ride ) , it is fine if you like being on fire roads, and NOT OFF ROAD, but we prefered to off road and see more mud and such,( we are avid ATV'ERS have 4 between two of us) so this was a huge disapointment to us.

Oh yea most important , be sure to get a balcony room


Royal is not the cheapest, but from our experiances it is top notch and they doo treat us like kings.

Charles, I hear you... however, after working for someone else for so many years and always being under some knuckleheads deadline, I would rather work for myself for a while. I have what I think is a good game plan and it doesnt inlcude sitting around doing nothing... part of my goal is to get to a point where if I want to take a month off, I can... if I want to take a day and go fishing, no problem. I figure I still have about 20 working years left so the hard work hopefully will pay off down the road.

edit: and oh yeah, when I have my own schedule... hiking would probably be in the top 5 of fun things to do... I never get enough of hiking [sm=icon_rock.gif]

 

Ralph is right about getting the balcony room. . .or they may call it a veranda. if it says port window it is not the same, you need to have the open area, and not just a port hole.

even though it might not sound right, we are going on a Disney Cruise. yes there is alot for kids, however there is more for the adults.

With any cruise line you are the most important person, if you had a good experience then your gunna tell your friends who may be thinking about going on a cruise and that will push them over the edge. Lorie and I went on one last year, actualy got married on the cruise, and we are going back again this year, that is how much we enjoyed the cruise.


edit: BTW, the food is so good words cannot describe it

 

dude your getting mushy on us again... [sm=icon_stickpoke.gif]

thats news to me

 

Yeah and she said it was wrong

 

I already know everything is my fault, even before it goes wrong. there is no excuse, and "Just Because" is the answer to everything.
