“I’d rather take an ass-whipping than take a cruise or attend a sporting event.”

LOLOL...you must be my long-lost brother!

We took an Alaskan cruise from Seattle to Juneau and Skagway a couple weeks ago. Our daughter and husband asked us to join them. It completely met my expectations — never again. It’s like spending a week at a crowded Disneyland. Ugh. I made it to age 72 without going on a cruise. I think I can safely say I’ll go another 72 years before I go on another one.

thinking about a cruise to Alaska...however, we’ve been to Alaska and rented a car to see the sights....but nothing beats driving to Alaska....I like a boots on the ground experience.

I took an Alaskan cruise the first week of July - Roayl Caribbean. From Seattle to Sitka to Skagway to Juneau to Victoria British Columbia and back to Seattle. Went with two of my brothers. We had a great time.

The only thing I did not like was the flight to and from Seattle, our home airport being Dulles International. Dulles is a crap airport and their baggage handling crews are crap. Some of our luggage was damaged.

I have been on about a dozen or more cruises - Carnival, Princess, Norwegian, and Royal Caribbean. I like RC and Norwegian the best. This Alaskan cruise I opted for a suite, which is always nice. You pay more, you get more. Close to 5,000 guests on the ship and I never felt crowed or rushed.
