Someone once said that once you experience a great thing, you expect that level of greatness from everyone, each time. I will be the first to say that I am the Type A-ist of the dreaded Type A personality, just this side of "Big Bang Theory's" Sheldon Cooper and when it comes to my vacation tours, I want organization, fun, and that all-pervasive sense of greatness when it comes to an end something I can rave about for years to come. Back in 2009, I experienced that on the 13-day Celebrity cruise tour in Alaska. For the past 4 years, I have praised this tour to the skies. This time, the stratospheric heights of the land tour took a walloping in the guise of our land tour guide and bus driver. Overall, the entire trip was utterly fantastic, but Celebrity has got to do something about those land tour guides. Our story begins as follows:

THE LAND PART - Wow.

Day 1 Pike's Landing, Fairbanks

Cabin Review

Ocean View 7

Cabin 07

Overall, very, very nice. Far away enough from the elevators to keep noise down. We had a slightly obstructed view out on our balcony, but not enough to keep us from enjoying it. Beds were comfortable and plenty of pillows. The people from the cruise before ours broke the glass table and one of the nightstands (kids...), and we got the nightstand replaced within the hour (we chose not to get that table because we've always found it gets in the way). Bathroom was spotless and toiletries were abundant. Shower had plenty of room, though I hated that damned curtain wrapping around my legs; get some anchors on that thing. Could have used more outlets - we have learned to bring our own power strips and extension cords. Need power in the bathroom. And Celebrity should make a note on where the hair dryer is now located; that led us on a merry chase for a while. The TV service has improved a bit, but still needs a little work.
