Sail Date: Jun 2011
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

This was our second trip to Alaska -- the first being on Princess, so we were anxious to compare the two, as we enjoyed Princess very much.

We were a bit worried because it seemed to have rained for a couple of weeks before our sail, but we ended up with beautiful weather at every single port, even Ketchikan, where not one drop of rain fell! We even wore short sleeves in Juneau so our helicopter ride over the glaciers was money well spent!

Our cruise through Glacier Bay was one of the highlights of our trip. It was chilly, but we braved the chill and stood out on the bow for almost the entire time. The ship stopped in front of the glacier for a long time. We saw it calve two or three times. We returned to our room and sat on the balcony for the rest of the time, as our side of the ship faced the glacier.

We were in cabin 7096. No problem whatsoever. It was right around the corner from the elevator and just two floors below the Lido. The bathroom was a nice size and there was a lot of storage space -- three closets and two large drawers under the bed. There was also room under the bed to store the suitcases.
