The cruise director was always a pleasure to see on stage. He was fun and welcoming. The naturalist was wonderful as was Libby Riddle. The dancers and singers were good.

The disembarkation was so dreadful, we chose to stay onboard. If the arrival was earlier in the day, we probably would have gone into town.

We took the $16 round trip bus ride to Mendenhall Glacier. The town was interesting once you by-passed the jewelry stores. Red Dog Saloon was fun.
