North to Alaska

After a night at Tom's be boarded a Yellow cab for the trip to Pier 66 on the Seattle waterfront. After going through the checkin procedure, which includes an airport style security check, we went on board. For the next couple of hours we explored and had lunch.

We went back to our stateroom for a little rest and to put stuff away.

It was off to our lifeboat station for the safety drill. A girl with an English accent taught us how to put on our lifejackets.

Then it was time for us to leave port and start the cruise. Captain Lars gave us a greating over the intercom. We relaxed in the Grand Atrium and had a drink.

So far the food has been good, crew has been nice and the ship comfortable.
