Just started following. Wow, your reviews and photos are amazing! You've done a tremendous job. Thank you for taking your time to do this. The ship looks so beautiful and the food so amazing. I know NCL does the dining differently than Royal Caribbean. Are the pictures you are posting from those restaurants free dining or paid extra dining?? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on the back of my mind but it didn’t look like a trail where they would look for food plus I didn’t see any bear warnings 😂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the food so far complimentary… nothing paid… I do have two free specialty dinning and tonight will be one of them Ocean Blue. I have to tell you that I am a fan of Royal but when it comes to complimentary food … NCL is the clear winner… you always have access to a complimentary table service meal 24/7. The free snack food options plentiful and on rotation. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BennyBrun Posted August 31, 2022 Author #286 Share Posted August 31, 2022 You really really need to bring winter gear if you want to stand outside to take in the view as we travel through the Glacier… we entered at around 3:45 pm and won’t make it to Dawes Glacier until 5:45PM and yeah it’s cold … finger numbing cold 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BennyBrun Posted August 31, 2022 Author #287 Share Posted August 31, 2022 We as in people on my side got all excited because we think we saw a bear running… I can not confirm or deny this because it looked like a bear but I did not get a good picture 😂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlibbydp Posted August 31, 2022 #290 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Totally random ask, and if you already posted pictures early on the trip, I apologize. I've been following along each day and just thought of this today. 🙂 Any chance you can take pictures of the room service menu? As always, thank you so much for bringing us along on your adventure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40yearcruiser Posted August 31, 2022 #292 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Thanks so much for the wonderful photos and commentary! We will be getting on the Bliss right after you get off. This will be our 2nd cruise to Alaska but the first was 14 years ago so it's nice to get a refresher of what to see. We are also flying in to Seattle (using NCL-made air reservations) on Saturday morning from the East coast. Keeping fingers crossed no flight delays to make us miss the ship. Enjoy the rest of your cruise and keep the information coming. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not make sure you have the airlines phone number ready and be proactive about any hiccups. Also let NCL know immediately since they booked your flights!!! Have a fantastic cruise! It’s going to be amazing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BennyBrun Posted August 31, 2022 Author #298 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Out here checking out the view… it’s not as icy as I remembered pre Covid … there used to be more glacier formation and more ice floating around 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
