  1. On the Caribbean Princess, formal night #2, western Caribbean cruise from Houston Bayport, back in 2014, there was a guy at our shared table in camouflage outfit, short pants, army boots, and didn't take off his also camouflaged hat for dinner, Further more, he ordered 4x the lobster successively. Restaurant stuff let him in, but asked us at the table if it was ok. It was a remarkable evening. 😄
  2. That's how I do the glacial excursions, too.
  3. The Sapphire Princess 19 year old running gag in all elevators.
  4. I tried it once. It had too much fat and was gristly. No good beef quality for a striploin tbh. The taste of the eatable rest was ok tho. The best beef on this trip was the MDR Wellington. I liked it more than the Mignon at Sterlings.
  5. ☝️ Sapphire Princess had the first Alaska sailing of this season (April 29). Fettuccine Alfredo and New York Strip Steak were always available.
  6. It's the standard outside platform on deck 4, just like entering a tender boat.
  7. The Sapphire today in Juneau. Still can't belief how fabulous the weather was last week. 🌞
  8. It is Temsco. I did it just one week ago. The seating is 1st row: Pilot-Pax-Pax 2nd row: Pax-Pax-Pax Front right is the best seat, but the company decides seating upon weight and balance.
  9. Disembarkation went very smooth. No lines at customs (Express Walk-off Group B at 08:00). Even though there were 3 ships disembarking today. Took me 5 minutes from ship to taxi.
  10. At least we will do the Vancouver Island Inside Passage on our return journey as the captain said. And with a nice weather forecast. No more chances of northern lights tho.
  11. Sitka Sound. What a nice Archipelago. And with us came the good weather said the locals (again). Princess should stop here more often. It's an unusual stop for Princess ships. The 7 day Voyage of the Glaciers never stops here. I like this place.
  12. Same here. If this party is divided into 2 or more events - just don't go anyway. Too many Gold + Elites
  13. Margerie Glacier and Mount Fairweather, Glacier Bay National Park
  14. And some more Juneau photos from yesterday. Juneau approach: Frozen Lido Deck at 6:00AM Entering the Gastineau Channel Gastineau Channel Town of Douglas Mirrored Juneau Mendenhall Glacier & Lake Iceberg at Mendenhall Lake Nugget Falls Steep Creek Boardwalk Gastineau Channel from Mount Roberts
  15. Juneau addition from yesterday: Mendenhall Glacier Helicopter & Guided Walk - Princess JNU810A Temsco Helicopter Mountains north of Juneau Mount Fairweather (15300 feet) in the far distance. This view is rare! Mendenhall Glacier from above Glacier pools Looking up Mendenhall Glacier The fleet is landing Blue ice Mendenhall up close Airbus H125 Helicopter Mendenhall Lake Back at the base
  16. Yes!! This was just confirmed by the Restaurant Chef of Vivaldi Dining Room. The change was done during drydock in Portland. So much better now.
