cruising twosome

We took this cruise a couple of years ago and also used TJ's, we loved them and the cruise was amazing! Thank you for the memories.

We took the blue bus to Menenhall earlier this month and were unable to buy one way tickets:(.....you had to buy a round trip.

We just returned from our Alaska cruise and stayed two nights at the Victorian Hotel. We were in the family suite (6 people). We had a wonderful stay, front office was very helpful with Resturant recommendations and getting us a taxi. A continental breakfast is included and free wifi. it's in the Gastown area, close to a number of restaurants and caught the Big Bus just a few blocks up by the library. Taxi from port was $6, a few of the youner ones in the group walked the 1 mile with luggage.

I also booked this hotel for our stay after the cruise for 2 nights. Good reviews on travel advisor. We are doing the family suite for 6 at a reasonable price too. Will let everyone know when we get back how it was.

Thank you for taking the time to "pay it forward" with the review. Enjoying all the pictures. Will be on the Radiance next month.

If you go over to RCCL web site and sign in under Crown and Anchor, they state your status. Should now state Diamond!:D

Glaciers, thank you, great reading! I sent this to the rest of our group to read too, we go I early June.

Best advise is always....layers! That way you can be comfortable no matter what. Bring a packable backpack to put layers as you peel off if necessary. We are going in early June and I have fleece leggings to wear under jeans (if really cold or on Glacier days), raincoat, scarf, hat and gloves, all of which take up little suitcase space. I am going to bring a couple of capri pants for nice/warm days also. Long and short sleeve tee shirts, a fleece top, wool socks and hiking shoes. Nice black dress pants and two dressy tops for formal night with black shoes. Husband is bring dress pants, shirt with ties, no jacket .Just a sample, not everything but hope this will give you ideas.

Babyeddiedog, it was over 14 years ago that we took the helicopter trip, which we reserved after we got in port. I don't think I would do that this year....there will be three other ships in port that day with us. That said....it was great!

Last trip we took a helicopter ride, this year we are trying out the train.

The helicopter trip was amazing, we got to stop on a glacier and the girls slid down it on cardboard that the pilot had brought. We walked into a ice tunnel made from dripping water that turn horizontal when the glacier moved. Blue ice! Enjoy.

Bummer that the scallops and onion tart are gone....but I'm glad the escargot is still around!

Scallop risotto (it's an appy, but I asked for it for main course!)

We also used TJ tours, very very satisfied. We had three mini buses, all of us meet with cruise critic roll call. One bus had children/teens with parents, another van wanted extra time at Jewish interests and the third just did the regular stops. Sometimes we overlapped, all great!

This is who we are working with for our June cruise. They travel on non cruise days too.

We went para sailing and then DD and BF rented a scooter for a few hours while the rest of us walked around. There is a great Marini bar too, right on the main street.

I get the turkey sausage links in the dinning room and the windjammer. Not sure about the egg whites.

Thank u for a wonderful review, brought back so many great memories of our trip on the Brillance 5 years ago and a trip to Italy 12 years ago. Good job!

Thanks John!

Does anyone have a detailed itinerary for the above trip? Thanks
