Just got off the Rhapsody of the Seas and it was FANTASTIC. We had bright sunshine and warm pleasant weather each time we went to a port and only one chilly rain day which was fortunately when we were at sea. Alaska this time of year has 19 hours of daylight so it seems that night never comes.

Rhapsody is a very comfortable smaller ship compared to the gigantic Oasis and I felt much more at home. This crew really works together to make sure everyone has a splendid time. For our first port, Juneau, we did the Tram and it was wonderful. There is a nice trail area up at the top and don't miss the movie.

Skagway, we did the White Pass Railroad and although it was spectacular, next time I would save $100 per person and just ride the motorcoach up. The train is noisy and does not stop for photos. Since these are the views of a lifetime, take the motorcoach which has four or five stops and you will get magnificent photos and be comfortable and able to hear the narrator. The train is noisy and you breath diesel fumes all the way down.

2100, best location. Seems like you are always getting off the elevator and it is right there. Quiet and comfortable.
