This was our 4th cruise with Princess, and as always, the experience lived up to expectations. Excellent food in the dining room, excellent service throughout. Room steward was great. Buffet was average, but had some good offerings depending on the day. They had a sushi bar one day and a desert bar another during the lunch time. Pizza was great, hamburgers were great. Ship shows a little wear and tear, but for her age, she's really not in bad shape.

We had rough sailing the first day and then again on Thursday night, but nothing too bad; I was in worse sailing out of Galveston a couple years back. There were quite a few people with seasickness though.

We knew we were in for rain, you can't expect to cruise to Alaska in September and not have rain. It poured in Ketchikan and Skagway, and only drizzled in Juneau. Was sunny in Victoria. Read more
