Alaska by way of a STAR

This was an amazing cruise, it was a repositioning, always my favorite, more sea days, more time on the ship, and usually a better price.

This was in fact such a good deal and I booked more than a year out and got a great price, we got a suite for just a little more than we usually spend on a balcony.

Being in the suite it was amazing, the best part was eating in the Cagney's rest. for breakfast and lunch. On the first day we met Christina and had her for our waitress most of the time we ate there, she and her assistant were so attentive and went out of their way to make your dining amazing.

We at at the main dining room every night but one, which we at Cagney's it was fantastic as always, oh the food there is the best on the ship. We always treat ourselves on every cruise. This was our 9th NCL cruise and the ship was easy to get around and we are used to freestyle and prefer it.

The shows were great, I was so happy when I found out my "guys" were doing their review of Frankie Valley, loved it again. Got a front row seat for that one. Was not so crazy about the magic show but that is not my cup of tea.

The suite was so amazing, it may have been a one in a lifetime trip never could afford that again. Some say once you go in a suite you can't go back, if all I could afford was an inside I would be happy just to be cruising, I LOVE the cruising part.

Alaska, WOW AMAZING, God's ultimate painting. We had lovely weather to explore, we did a tour in Junea whale watching, they were really quiet that day, but we did see a few tails, and cute sea otters. It ended at the Glacier (Mendell) MAGICAL, breathtaking, awesome.

Ketchikan we took a tour of the town then on to the Totem pole village. It was a nice tour, would do again.

We ended our cruise in Canada, after a short visit we flew home.

This is a cruise I would do again and again, and I rarely want to go back, I want to see the whole world if I can.
