They're coming....THE FIRST TRIP REPORTS...POST EM POST EM

[Frank12]

Anyone who is sailing the Spirit to Alaska this season, please write a report when you come back!! :)

I do have one rather silly but specific question.....what day is the laundry special (the one where you get a bag of laundry done for one price)? I will be in Seattle for almost a week pre-cruise and would like to make use of that service. I need to know how many unmentionables I need to pack!! ;)

Thanks for our help!

Sailing June 12th and I can't wait....:D

Just know that the laundry bags on Carnival are not that big. They do have self-serve laundry facilities on the ships as another alternative. I know, I know, who wants to do laundry on vacation? :p

sharecruises - we are taking the last 14 day cruise on the Amsterdam and will be staying at the Quality Inn before we go. Would really appreciate it if you could let us know how it was, any problems getting transportation to the pier, close by food services and any other information that would make our stay more enjoyable.

 

Thanks - Enjoy your cruise.

Here is a fantastic review by a gal who is a wonderful, professional photographer

Stunning Glacier Pics (Glacier Bay)...great shots of White Pass and much much more...wheeee.....

 

Interesting to note : Lots of tour booths right at the Juneau port

Also seems price of crab at Tracey's Shack has gone up drastically
