Checkin as soon as you can. Next go to the Celebrity Mercury Roll Call board for your sailing and get to know your fellow cruisers.

Have a great cruise.

Look for "Cruise Lines Roll Calls" on the main forum page, then click on your cruiseline, then a list of Roll Call (w/dates of sailing) will come up. Look for your date, and viola', click on your Roll Call. Hopefully someone has started one for your sailing, and if not, start one yourself, w/the date of sailing in the title of the thread. Have fun!

How active are you? We loved excursions that involved:

 

1. Landing on a glacier via helicopter

2. Ice climbing

3. Dog sledding

4. Going on a train ride deep into mountains

5. Whale watching

6. Hiking wilderness trails

7. Ziplining

 

(we've been to Alaska 3 times so far - we love it!)

 

But if you are not very active, you might like seeing the lumberjack show in Ketchikan and the helicopter flight to a glacier in Juneau (even my elderly MIL loved that.)

[Assateague Island Princes]

Whale watching in either Juneau (recommend Harv and Marv) or Icy Straight. Flightseeing of Misty Fiords w/Michelle of Island Wings. Sea Kayaking in any port. Tram to the top of Mt. Roberts then hiking. Bear Watching in Icy Straight. Tons to do. Check out the Ports of Call - "Alaska" thread for more suggestions - plenty to read to keep you busy for days! Depends on what you and your family enjoy. Alaska is amazing, breathtaking and magnificent - all rolled into one. Just being on the ship is like an excursion itself! Enjoy!:p

Hi Cru1ser,

 

We went to Alaska last summer with Hal, but our blog below will have many photos of ports and we did several excursions including Harv & Marv, Sea Kayak Trip and White Pass RR.

 

Have a good trip.
