Once that is done and you have proofread the thing, copy and paste it into your post. It will be much easier on you than fighting the Internet connection. It was the picture thing that was making me dizzy. It kept re-drawing as it couldn't load the pictures at a decent speed. I understand the Word and transfer, and sometimes I did that. If I was only typing a few sentences, I didn't do it though which then was a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Moreno maybe on - (Princess Rachel of Sitka). She was only on from Vancouver to Sitka. I think the other naturalist may still be on - his name was Allan Conlin. He isn't as dynamic as Rachel Cartwright is as a speaker. I do still have the Patters. Let me know what info you want now. Just the dates, times, and titles of any of the naturalist talks that Rachel gave would be great. My friend is replacing Allan. Trying to get an idea of how many lectures will be needed as there's a really short time to prepare anything. Thanks!

He had good info but he was very monotone in speaking and Rachel C was a rock star so he was compared to her. We were told we were unique as during our Meet and Greet - we were told we had more Alaskan speakers on any ship in Alaska. I think this was because we had Rachel C and Allan (as opposed to just one). Good luck to your friend. Hopefully what I provided was helpful. Most of the talks were for 45 minutes.

wolfie11 Posted June 13, 2023 #482 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Thanks, Coral. I appreciate it. Rachael is a rock star and a very nice person. My friend is stepping in for someone who got sick, so very little time to prepare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the "speed and reliability" I have experienced with the Internet connection on Princess you must have the patience of a saint to be posting pictures here. We all appreciate that you do so but it would make me crazy trying to deal with the poor connections I have had when cruising. Granted, it has been "better" since the restart but not dramatically so - at least for the two cruises we have had since the restart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. I used to always be on the first Alaska sailing of the season or the coastal and the CD used to always get on the ship during that time and would stay on for the season. I have no doubt things have changed since then. I thought Olivia did a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a group of 5 whales. We saw some solos before this. I then went looking for bears (and found them) with Greg Garcia: http://geestahuntours.com We drove all over the island and had a great tour. Also saw whales on this tour (go figure). I will write more later. Definitely great to book with the locals of Hoonah! Will try to write more later. It was a hot, sunny day! Coral, we are doing the identical tour in September 2024. It is exactly what we wanted. I wanted to thank you for the information. Edit - both glacier and geesta Edited September 18, 2023 by jean87510 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
