photomikey Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Cruise indeed, we're on the Norwegian Sun to Alaska that week. We did a bargain cruise two years ago (on the offseason, when they move the ship from one port to another), it was our first. We enjoyed it, but it was a bit docile.My grandmother announced she wanted to go to Alaska for her 80th, and asked the whole family to join. So we're off again, this time for 7 nights. We're traveling right in the middle of peak season (which is unusual for me), and paying a premium for everything from the cruise and the airfaire to the hotel. Argh. Link to comment
