Well, as they say, "All good things must come to an end," and so it is with sadness, our cruise has run its' course and has come to a close. We experienced spectacular scenery, incredible weather, glorious sunshine, awesome food, friendly people, groovy dancing, absolute serenity, and the list goes on.
Our cruise director, Lee Childers, has been doing the Alaskan cruise season, which is April 30 - September 30 of each year, for the past twenty years. NEVER in his experience has the weather been this incredible: no rain, average daytime temperatures between 67 and 75, placid seas with no more than 3 foot swells. It doesn't get better than this!
We met several Princess employees who provided outstanding service; they were the largest contributor to the overall enjoyment of this fabulous cruise. We highly recommend it to anyone (even though we can't guarantee weather like we've had). Even so, others who have taken the cruise in less-than-perfect weather have still enjoyed it thoroughly and have called it the highlight of a lifetime!
We arrived home on the 14th of June, which is the date of our 35th anniversary, to find the house in order, the garden watered, the plants blooming and our kitty kats longing for our companionship. We'll soon settle into our routines, but our life will never be the same again after having experienced a taste of the final frontier. We'll definitely return.
