All my favorite vacations involve water (even if it’s only
the Storybook Land Canal Boats and the Jungle River Cruise). For the past week
we’ve been exploring Alaska's inside passage aboard a 86,700 ton
cruise ship. We’ve seen black bears, bald eagles, sea otters, brown gulls, mountain
goats, pink jelly fish and too many humpback whales to count. We’ve watched
icebergs float by – some as small as picnic coolers and others as big as
shipping containers. We’ve gone swimming in the middle of Glacier Bay. Okay, we
were in a very comfortable heated pool on a ship in the middle of the bay, but
it definitely counts. We dined on escargot, filet mignon, lobster tail and
baked Alaska. But all good things eventually come to an end. It’s time to head home,
sort our photos and tackle a mountain of dirty laundry. And to start dreaming
of our next adventure.
