fti Posted September 16, 2007 #5 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Thanks for posting that. I am in the process of compiling a fairly exhaustive FAQ re: Alaska and would like to include those links if that is OK. Perhaps when my FAQ is finished, it can be used as a similar reference as your post would be. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brahmama Posted March 10, 2008 #11 Share Posted March 10, 2008 What a selfless thing to do - and how many hours it must have taken you. This has saved us hours (and hours) of research. It's people like you that keep us coming back to Cruise Critics. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
