But,,, you can build your own flight, two drinks at a time,,,, for free! Who needs small glasses when you can get full sized drinks. 😁 Edited September 5, 2023 by BirdTravels 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks freaking spotless!!! So cool and what a marvel of efficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How far is the walk if you don't mind? We are pretty heaty folks and would prefer to walk than ride if is under a few miles (and not pouring). And thank you again for taking the time to post all of the info! Looks so gorgeous - 19 days to go!!!!!! Warmest Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb2367 Posted September 6, 2023 #88 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Excellent pictures of Juneau, bird. The shuttle line looks a bit daunting. Hopefully it's not too far of a walk to town. Currently nothing on my plan for that port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunnyHutt Posted September 6, 2023 #90 Share Posted September 6, 2023 On 9/3/2023 at 8:21 PM, BirdTravels said: wrt boarding, there was no priority seating. The back room boards before the front room. If you want to board early, be in the back room and lurk by the boarding door. We’re sailing in less than 2 weeks. Having never sailed out of Seattle, I’m guessing this layout will make sense once we arrive? Thank you for this great information/thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BirdTravels Posted September 6, 2023 Author #97 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) The Birds spent a lovely afternoon in Juneau taking in the views and walking through the rainforest at the top of Mount Roberts. You can stroll like The Birds or so some serious hiking along the trials at the top of the mountain 1800 feet above the docks.

Rare BirdTravels Posted September 6, 2023 Author #99 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) The Birds can confirm that the lovely mascarpone bread at Ocean Blue is no more 😢. It has been replaced with a “rustic French bread”. The Birds quizzed the waiter, Maitre D, and the Executive Sous Chef of Ocean Blue and they all gave the “party line” that it was an evolution of Ocean Blue menu and not cost cutting…. Farewell mascarpone bread… we will miss you Edited September 6, 2023 by BirdTravels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted September 6, 2023 Author #100 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) The Latitudes free bottle of wine with dinner list is larger than The Bird has seen on any cruise this year. Not quite back to pre-pandemic, but better than two selections per category. Edited September 6, 2023 by BirdTravels 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
