Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #151 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Then our Awelaska cruise was over. We disembarked in an orderly fashion and prepared to spend two days in seattle. Later on that day we waved goodbye to the Rhapsody as she left on her last Alaska cruise of 2013. Our Seattle highlights were the Pike Place Market.... ...the Underground Seattle tour... ...the views from Smith Tower... ...and the world's first Starbucks (that one was for Anouk, she's the only one who drinks coffee).

Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #152 Share Posted September 24, 2013 The boys went to the Museum of Flight and had the time of their lives (aviation fans...nerds). And we ate. Surprisingly. Hard Rock Café: Cheesecake Factory: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #153 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Pub Terrible Beauty at Lake Union: And finally Joey Lake Union: All the places were good. Joey was the least favourite one. And thus, my friends and dear readers, ends our trip to the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. We hated it and will never go back.

Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #154 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Or then we just might have loved it and are planning our next group cruise for Spring 2015. Even now there are plenty of choices and we just need to agree on one. Panama Canal is going quite strong at the moment :D We had so much fun together. No, really we did. And just to end this all in a shock: Anouk is Lowry's ex-girlfriend. It's OK. They split up before we even met. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #155 Share Posted September 24, 2013 So if anyone has any questions, fire away. I have saved all the compasses and have four other people to ask if I myself can't remember something (because I do know everything, OK?) The next report will be in.....(drum roll).....(more drum roll).....April 2014!! That'll be just me and the hubby again. Thanks for reading, everyone. Have a nice day and even better next cruise :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PudgiPoo Posted September 24, 2013 #158 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Do you have any information about the Luggage Valet service from the Rhapsody? Interested in what airlines are available for valet service. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misty57 Posted September 24, 2013 #159 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Thank you so much, best review ever!! RCI should hire you for sales. We are now booked for the same trip/ship same week next year!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinppu Posted September 24, 2013 Author #160 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Great review of your Alaska Cruise. I am glad that you enjoyed Rock Britainia. I saw Graham Seymore perform Rock Britania on the Freedom of the Seas a few years back. Hopefully you made it to his comedy show. We did and we liked it so much. He is great, just got married in fact. Had funny jokes about that too. :D Yet another very enjoyable review! Thanks for the time and effort Sinny. You're welcome Bob.

Thanks Thanks Peggy. It wasn't very many airlines. I did read the note but didn't save it. Delta, AA and two more. I'd say Southwest and a fourth one that wasn't familiar to me.

Elmartellama Posted September 24, 2013 #164 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Lovely review! We are interior cabin users as well. If it justs cost half of it, then we can travel twice for the same price. As simple as that :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmarti Posted September 24, 2013 #165 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Sinny, I'll miss you. Your review was great, especially the pictures. When do you return home? I'll be on the Rhapsody next Aug. 22 to Alaska and because of your review, I can't wait. Thanks, again and safe trip home for all of you. madmarti:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 25, 2013 #166 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) Sinny, I love your review and glad to see you enjoyed your time in Canada. Our first cruise was to Alaska for our honeymoon, followed by a week in Vancouver. Your review was like a trip down memory lane. I was happy to see you converted your friends, and glad to see the purchases of technology too. I hope I don't screw this up. kiitos ihana katsaus Andrew Edited September 25, 2013 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always wanted to see the Great White North and now I want to see more!! I've been planning a trip to Ontario and Quebec for quite a while already... Buying the tech gadgets saved my friends hundreds of euros. Worth it and so was introducing them to cruising.

I am off to Quebec on Friday for the weekend and the fall colours of leaves are changing there already. When ever you decide to return I think you and your travelling partners will have a wonderful time. As for saving the Euros, perfect move. Introducing your friends to cruising, priceless. Hope we can sail with you all one day, but until then we shall enjoy your reviews.:) Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kreuzfahrtneuling Posted September 26, 2013 #172 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Hi Sinppu, Wow! What a gem! I just read the entire review in one sitting! I LOVED it! Thank you so much! ....and I just can't wait to read all of your other reviews as well --- sigh, I guess I won't get anything done around here for the next couple of days -- I'll be too busy reading. Thank you again! Stef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigislandcuiser Posted September 28, 2013 #174 Share Posted September 28, 2013 The others woke up and we decided to have breakfast in the Park Café. It was pretty easy to find seats (which I found surprising). See the little black spots? They are seals. Imagine having this as the view while eating your breakfast. Now have I sold you an Alaska cruise already? I'm ready to cruise Alaska but have to wait until after the Allure cruise (saw your report). Glad to see you and your friend having so much fun. Had a great trip in Tahiti - was costly but beautiful. Thanks for the review. It's wonderful!!! Gary & Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
