Review summary

I will mention the disappointing part of our trip first. A teenage passenger was running in the hall ( which they did from morning until late night) and he fell and broke his arm. Our captain made the decision to bypass the glaciers ( which was one of the main reasons we came on the cruise). And sail directly into Juneau to get the young man to the hospital. With all that taken in consideration for the best wishes to the young man, we really felt Short changed for what we didn’t get to see.I’m hoping there’s some type of restitution made to the passengers. Other than that, we had a great time and the time we did have in each port.
