Sail Date: May 2022
Cabin: Mid-ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

After postponing this cruise 4 times we finally set sail on May 8, 2022. I believe this cruise was only half full. Even with that the embarkation process seemed a bit disjointed. We had to present COVID Vac cards , passports, arrive Canada documentation and test results which we did before traveling to Seattle. Once aboard the ship we made it to our mid balcony club accommodations. The room was a little larger that I expected. The food was good but not great and plenty of it. The only real disappointment was on the excursion to Victoria BCWe waited about 45 minutes before we could disembark. Then we had to switch buses. So we got to Burchard Gardens in the dark. This is a place to visit in daylight not at night. Everything there was closed: gift shop, coffee shop etc. Very disappointed with this. Getting off the ship for each excursion presented a bottle neck of people. Possibly they need to stagger the times to exit the ship.

Very good and clean

Glacier Bay

A beautiful place

Victoria

This excursion would have much better in daylight when everything was open. Lights did not illuminate as necessary
