g35girl Posted October 5, 2014 #52 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Thanks the Pearl is a great ship. I never heard anything until the early morning and it sounded like some dragging of chairs, but never enough to wake me up. We had lots of fog so the captain blew the horn a lot, but other than that no noise. Thanks for the info alrichards! I'm really enjoying your photo review!

Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 5, 2014 Author #53 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I was glad we went back to the ship, it was sunny but windy and I needed my jacket, which I did not wear earlier and though my boots were cute they were not made for walking so I changed shoes as well. We met on the end of the pier which was very close to the ship. image by alrichards4003, on Flickr I enjoyed the tour, instead of stickers marking you part of the tour we each got a red and black garter. We were driven by the shuttle to the starting point and walked our way to the Red Onion Saloon image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 5, 2014 Author #54 Share Posted October 5, 2014 When on vacation and a couple of tours you are given so much information, one of the facts I retained was this building is the most photographed building in Alaska due to (7,000?) pieces of driftwood image by alrichards4003, on Flickr We ended at the Red Onion Saloon and everyone was given a glass of champagne, but we did not sit but walked with the glasses, I did not get any pictures inside the saloon.

Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 5, 2014 Author #56 Share Posted October 5, 2014 We had never tried Teppanyaki, so instead of the Italian restaurant I booked Teppanyaki.

Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 5, 2014 Author #59 Share Posted October 5, 2014 We have stayed in all room categories from Inside to Suite, and sometimes it was just not worth the extra money to upgrade when we were rarely in the room, but in the case of the suite was worth every penny. However, this is the first cruise I felt the room was important based on the ports but more specifically Glacier Bay, it was nice being able to observe the glacier from our balcony. Glacier Bay was one of our favorites, and I am glad we chose the Pearl which went to Glacier Bay whereas I believe the Jewel did not.

Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 5, 2014 Author #68 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Glacier Bay was the combination of viewing the glaciers and a sea day. Bingo, art auction, casino, spa, etc. Dinner in Indigo, again food was very good.

Rare alrichards4003 Posted October 7, 2014 Author #71 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Ketchikan is supposed to get twice the rain of Seattle, we had gorgeous weather the entire time and Ketchikan was no exception, our only problem was all of the fog. if I had to do it again, I would have done this tour later in the day to avoid the fog. A lot of people were doing 2 tours in Ketchikan, but I don't like to schedule that tightly. My husband picked this excursion, I did not realize the entire tour would be on the boat (except bus to and from boat), but I found it very enjoyable and we saw a ton of bald eagles. image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr image by alrichards4003, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
