We went to several musicals. Those were ok. John Bressler was really good and Steve Moris was hilarious. Very entertaining. Really enjoyed the guest speakers. Capt Jack from Deadliest catch and Michael Modzelewski were excellent

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

We did 2 excursions. The dog sledding was great! The views were breathtaking on the flight to the glacier and May was our guide, she was wonderful. Our other excursion was whale watching. I would skip that one. It was too long and we saw a few whales from a distance. We saw whales, otters and sea lions from our ship while we were sailing.

Skagway, Alaska

4 out of 5
Small port. More touristy. We did the train ride. That was nice. We also went to the Kroshel wildlife sanctuary on Haines. That was very interesting. Definitely would do that again.

Ketchikan, Alaska

4 out of 5
We did the Misty Fjords plane trip. What a waste of money. It was raining and so foggy you couldn't see much. They said they only have a few sunny days a summer. After our trip they cancelled the rest for the day. I know you can't control the weather but when you only have a handful of sunny days your chances of seeing much are pretty slim. I heard the wildlife boat ride was really good. As with any port it was geared for the tourist and shopping.

Victoria, British Columbia

4 out of 5
We visited Butchart gardens. Only problem was we docked at 7 pm. Hard to see flowers in the dark. Probably would not do that again at night even they tell you it's lit up, it's very minimal. The bus driver was great!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

I read overall good. I will stay away from the plane ride based on your comments. Thanks for all your input.
