I use the vouchers elsewhere but I believe it was open in the mornings for a Continental breakfast. It's right between Music Hall and the theater. One more question, when using the vouchers, do they automatically add the tip or do I add the tip when signing the voucher receipt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably should of taken the bus that circles from the boat and all around town. Found out after walking it was $5 for all day. Is Skagway scooter-friendly?

No tip added when using voucher. Nothing to sign either. Carry some ones for tips is what we do. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It showed access to the Diamond Lounge Happy Hour 5 pm to 8 pm. Not interested in Happy Hour. Do you know if the Diamond Lounge is accessible at other times? Dl opens at 7 am and open until 10 or 11 pm everyday. We like to go for free lattes, espressos in the morning. No vouchers needed for them at the DL. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said all flights to Denver were canceled. I would hate to deal with canceled flights again. We will see how Sunday goes. Oh man, are they canceled on all airlines? We fly home on United and have a stop in Denver in 3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will try posting more later. How long is the walk from town to the park? Because I have a scooter I would have to be onboard before 1:30 pm to avoid the tender.

After this cruise I will be excited to cruise with my daughter. This was originally her idea but as you probably remember she will be having her 1st baby in 3 months! Congratulations on the grandbaby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got back to the room my wife had the balcony door open. I opened our room door and a huge vacuum of wind about blew me over and the balcony curtains were slapping the ceiling. I am not exaggerating. I took two hard steps in against the wind, the ship shifted and the wind suddenly stopped. I flew across the room and landed In bed. It's like being on a looooong roller coaster ride. That’s what happened on our first cruise to Alaska - 35-foot swells. Half the crew and passengers were sick. Merchandise fell off the shelves and clothing racks toppled over. There were cleaning foam spots on the hall carpets - need I say more? We were almost thrown of the bed …..

Rare Ferry_Watcher Posted May 21, 2022 #544 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Saw the Ovation sail by my house early this evening on the post @Ozark_Kidcruise (May 20). North Star was actually extended up over the ship while still in Puget Sound. I had never seen that before. It was a beautiful evening for sail-a-way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted May 21, 2022 Author #546 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Advise. We are staying at Hampton Inn and Suites Downtown. When we stayed here before the cruise our room was on the 3rd floor. The hall is right at check in and the lobby. It was real noisy and the bed was not comfortable. This time we are on the 6th floor and it is nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
