MisterMatthew Posted May 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Hi all. It is WED here in Alaska. We will be at Sitka in about an hour. Light rain. To be honest, my cell carrier has only had service in Juneau. And, now again as we prepare to arrive. My cruise, thus far, has been enjoyable. In addition, there has been a few twists and turns. A nice bevy of pleasant events. A scoop of controversey. And, a slight shake-up. When i return home to LV, Nevada.. i will go in-depth with a report on my trip. I will furnish photos. And of course have the posession of better internet! ---Matthew 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMatthew Posted May 24, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted May 24, 2023 This was on the way to Juneau. It was taken with a cell phone. A phone that is a Samsung which is aging, and could probably be found in a thrift store for the sum of $4.00. But, enough bout that. I like the lido at at an EARLY hour. Before a large amount of guests and staff. Calming. Relaxing. ----Matthew 20230522_053941.mp4 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It drives me nuts. 🙂 Edited May 24, 2023 by Boatdrill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes flying home so much easier🙂! It wasn't offered a year ago in June on the Westerdam and the SEA airport was a nightmare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you find HAL's overhead music in the Lido and outdoors irritating in the morning ? It drives me nuts. 🙂 Hiya, Boatdrill.. to be honest the sound level has been minimal. That is good. The music choices have been mellow. There has not been any "hip hop". That is AWESOME! ---- Matthew (in Ketchikan, all aboard is in 6 min) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not select it. But, CAN see where it would ease some nerves. ---Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a small shake up, up on deck 11 at the Coffee Bar. I will go into that with my report later! --Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMatthew Posted May 27, 2023 Author #16 Share Posted May 27, 2023 En route to Victoria BC at the moment. Captain said (a little bit ago) we will likely arrive 45 min early! ---Matthew 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
