Review summary

The boat is showing some age, but it's a big boat. The elevators are always a long wait no matter which set you use. There were times we just gave up waiting and walked. Dont really understand what was happening with that. As for the cruise Alaska is stunning, amazing, incredible, insert whatever words you want, it wont do it justice. You must experience it first hand. The most amazing undisturbed place on earth. There is sometime amazing to see at ever corner. Take the helicopter ride to the glacier, it is beyond description. The Scenic White Pass train ride in Skagway is another must do.

what a depressing city. Very beautiful sights, but another progressive hell hole. If not the most expensive city it's close and the depression and homelessness is out of control.

this should be 1st stop not last. After the 2 Alaska stops and the Glacier, this place is anti climatic.
