We're a little late in getting our review together, but since we had such a fabulous time, we still want to share our experience and thoughts with others.

So here goes...My childhood friend and I promised each other 9 years ago we would take an Alaskan Cruise together the year we both turned 60 (this was that year). We'd spent our elementary and high school years together in Nova Scotia but now live 3000 miles apart on opposite ends of Canada, me in Nova Scotia and she on Vancouver Island, BC (since 1971). We booked our cruise on Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas in Oct’12 and had many Skype visits together making final plans.

I flew to Victoria a day early and on day of departure, we used the Pacific Coast Lines bus to take us from Victoria to Vancouver. That was a good choice as they handled our luggage from pickup to ship, so we were free to enjoy the crossing. Our cruise was out of Canada Place in Vancouver. There were three cruise ships in port boarding for Alaska that day, so there were thousands of people all gathered in one room, each given a number. The wait was rather long, but once our number was called the lines went fairly quickly, we were issued our blue Sea Pass Cards, the usual Welcome Aboard picture was taken and then we boarded The Rhapsody of the Seas.
