Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #177 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Leisurely walk back along the coast to catch a shuttle back to Miracle before the line inevitably got crazy. silver Shadow with Miracle lurking out deeper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #179 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) All that worry went away on the way back when we had an Orca party this picture is from our shuttles but not mine - it was somebody in our group and I had to get it. So awesome. Edited June 24, 2022 by TxTeach79 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #181 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Decided to grab a couple hot chocolates and head up to 10 to see if we could spot anymore whales or eagles. And yeah, I know there’s free hot chocolate on Lido, but the good stuff at JavaBlue is just so much better…. taking in some views of Sitka before sailaway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #182 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) I know the picture stinks, but that’s a whole mess of Eagles having an important meeting. It was cool watching them all fly down there. found the builders’ plate! I’d also forgotten that the Spirit class ships weren’t Fincantieri.

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #185 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Never fully understood the Hollywood themed bread plates. They were there all week and apropos of nothing. awesome table tonight…. And boy would it pay off. so during dinner, as we sailed away, a pod of orcas came up right along side us. Our whole (port) side of the dining room started hooting and hollering and trying to get a look. I didn’t get any pics because I was so caught up in the moment and it would have been hard to get great shots. At one point, the group count got up to 19 spottings. It was absolutely insane and one of the more amazing experiences I’ve had onboard ship. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #187 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Okay, I forget the specific name of this entree…. It was one of the 50th Birthday dishes but I’ve never heard of it before. Salmon, spinach, and some other stuff in a puff pastry with a sauce on the side… and it… was… DELICIOUS. just OUTSTANDING. I want it again. ASAP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #189 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Cruise by the gift shop before an early bedtime before a big day in Juneau tomorrow. I would love this. I sailed on the Ol’ tss Mardi Gras as a kid and have a framed lithograph (remember when they’d pass those out the last formal night at dinner?) of her hanging on my wall…. But… I just don’t buy it! I wish I did! But I don’t! 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #190 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Morning! Early risin’ as we head into the Capital city I forgot to mention, picked up the platinum gift and pin at Pixels after dinner. This is my second slap bracelet koozie, I kinda dig em. I’m especially glad the ship names are back on the pins. our impressive in room booze setup. Ordered the Jack and Vodka in advance to have something to enjoy on the balcony (and since we weren’t getting cheers), and we lucked into two bottles of wine at the steakhouse. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #191 Share Posted June 24, 2022 First glimpses of Juneau. We’d be shuttling in from anchor again, but a) it was no surprise, and b) we are soooo much closer. Today, everything would go smooth as silk. another glimpse under the dome at Nick & Nora’s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #192 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Crowded day in Juneau… so let’s do some ship porn! X Millennium Royal Princess and Norwegian Bliss Royal P Norwegian Bliss Norwegian had an odd schedule in Juneau today. Bliss would leave REALLY early in the day, and be replaced by Encore in the latter half. It was just strange, because every other ship stayed all day long. Also, even though we had to shuttle, apparently the Norwegian pier was so far away people had to take buses to get to it. According to our tour guide, anyway. Mostly I just thought the schedule was weird as heck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #193 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Strolling around up top bright (?) and early I really like this picture I can see Tracy’s from here! We had designs on eating here, but the day led us elsewhere. No regrets. Maybe next time. Edited June 24, 2022 by TxTeach79 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #196 Share Posted June 24, 2022 It’s EVERYWHERE, people. Seriously though, internet was pretty good. Other than some parts of Tracy Arm, we didn’t lose connection as much as I’d heard and feared. some Miracle stairway action 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted June 24, 2022 Author #197 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Honestly, the elevators on Miracle feel pretty big. Bigger than the newer ships. That said, 18??? 18 PEOPLE?!?!? Only if you slice em thin and stack em deep. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
