LOL, you are cracking' me up!! Very glad to hear you did not deprive yourself of bathroom or food, I would feel too guilty then!
You saw Orcas?! Amazing! And a breach?! Double amazing! You have every right to blubber away- I know I always do. SO magical, most definitely. And we are in the same club now- the I went once, I gotta go back to Alaska club. There are plenty of members, I feel certain.
What RCCL ship were you on?
Sorry I didn't quote you right, it's a PITA on an ipad! First world problems.
We were on Rhapsody of the Seas, it's an older ship so it doesn't have all the bells and whistles like their new ships but we loved it. Honestly on an Alaskan cruise it's more about the scenery than what you have access to on the ship in my opinion, it was still a beautiful ship with plenty of amenities, we left out of Seattle
The cruise direction said people think of Alaskan cruises and think of the "Newly wed and nearly dead" I think that stigma is starting to go away, especially with disney sailing there
