We were on this sailing. It was our first time to Alaska and will definitely not be our last! We stayed away from the buffet; we found it very small and pretty much the same offerings everyday. We found the food overall to be just ok, but that's us. The bar tenders at the Good Spirits Bar were fabulous. We did see some of the shows and they were fantastic! The crew was very attentive and were always able to answer questions or assist when needed and our room steward was outstanding! I loved this itinerary as the 3 sea days were great for some relaxation. The activities overall we found similar to most cruise lines; trivia, karaoke, music etc. I miss my balcony and just sitting out there watching the glorious scenery pass by.
