Good morning! We just left Tracy Arm Fjord and are heading to Juneau. I got my coffee downstairs at Starbucks. There has really been no line for coffee this week.

Good morning. Today we are heading to Hubbard Glacier. I was torn on whether or not to book the Glacier Explorer tour for today. In the videos I’ve seen of Hubbard, it looks like the ships are able to get pretty close to it. And the cost of that…

I found the Hubbard Glacier Explorer excursion to be be a bit on the expensive side. At $400, it’s more than I paid to walk on a glacier for two and a half hours from Anchorage. I did get a $50 discount with NCL’s Free At Sea promotion taking…

Good Evening! I just got off of the 1pm train from Anchorage and boarded Norwegian Jewel at 6pm in Seward, Alaska on my first NCL cruise. We boarded conveniently by the elevators and I headed up to my room.
