Thank you so much for the awesome pictures. We leave in 6 weeks and these pictures just make me want it to get here tomorrow!! :D

ME too Jan!! I am so excited to hear you had a good experience with Dyea Dave - we are booked with him for Skagway, but we are riding the train back just because we LOVE trains! Thanks so much for sharing! If some of my pics do not turn out good - I just may snatch some of yours! You should be a professional photographer! :)

I have not used my iPad to manage my pictures that I have taken with my camera. I would like to off load my pics from my camera to my iPad but not sure how to do this. Any help?

We are booked with Alaska Galore for our cruise in August. I am subscribing to this thread to decide if we need to change whale watching tours!

Went to the Dollar Tree yesterday after being inspired by reading this thread. Found the best lightweight plastic shower caddy that has two really good suction cups on it to hold my razor and shampoo in the TINY showers on Princess. Clear lucite and will not weigh a thing in my luggage. I also found a huge bottle of hand sanitizer. They also had packages of 3 - 3 oz travel bottles so I can put my own shampoo and conditioner in them. Much cheaper and same quality as a package I saw at the container store for $6.00. I also bought a package of magnetic clips to use to hang up our daily patter in the room - 3 really nice clips in the package and strong magnets. Also bought a big package of old fashioned clothes pins. Small roll of duct tape also! If you need medicines in small sizes for your cruise they had almost anything you could want or need! It was a good day at the Dollar Tree! ;)

go to their website and look at the coverage maps. All cell phone companies have coverage maps and you can check the locations you will be in.

This is sooooo exciting as I am a Sweet Adeline - Women's Barbershop Organization and sing with the Rich-Tone chorus here is Dallas! We will be going on the Coral on the Inside Passage this August for our 40th wedding anniversary and I will look forward to participating! Glea at Sea!! How fun!!

We are going on a cruise to Alaska in August and needed waterproof pants - we already had a bunch of jackets. I have purchased 2 pairs for my husband - both expensive GoreTex brand that zip off at the knee and I got both of them for .99 each + shipping (5.35) I was so excited - they both look like brand new! I have also bought a beautiful silk Chico's jacket for formal night --$10!! I LOVE Ebay and I LOVE the Dollar Store too. We have purchased those rain ponchos also and they are great!
