carlie Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 IMO - the Alaskan cruises are great but ONLY if the weather is good. Many times there is lots of rain and that is a real downer. While on board - I personally am in my room very little but having my room gives me a feeling of security incase I can't deal with things for awhile. We also take a portable DVD player with us that also works on batteries because cruise ships usually offer little in the way of TV entertainment.

JMHO We went in August and were very lucky with the weather. It rained a couple times but wasn't foggy or cloudy so we got to see all the beautiful nature and the wild life. It was freezing when we went thru the Tracy Arm ice glaciers but was absolutely magnificent. That is where a balcony sure comes in handy. I also like to have my room near by in case I get a little freaked out with all the people on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bm6546 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Well bm6546 that is our plan, but first we must save up the money. I have looked into it and it is expensive. I thought I could drive my MH up and save NOT, that would be 15k and that is wayyyyy out of my budget. I am only 50% that =$770 a month. so must save much more I would like to go on at least 1 cruise each year. I have been on 3 cruises in the last 4 years. Alaska, Mexican Riviera and the Western Caribean. So far, Alaska has been my favorite cruise because of all the wild life and nature. I am hoping to go to the Panama Canal (2 weeks) in Nov 2012. But if I have to get an expensive IMO then that will be my vacation money shot to hell. Maybe a miracle will happen with my claim and my friends at the VA.
