I am off the wilds of Alaska to see grizzly bears, black bears, mountain goats, bald eagles and wolves.
The Captain’s Blog gave an entertaining and informative viewpoint of what to expect day by day on the cruise. Interspersed with the wildlife that was spotted eg harbor seals, a preening puffin, bubble netting humpback whales, and a bald eagle, there were tempting descriptions of the food on offer: Wild King Salmon, freshly caught halibut and chips lunch (complete with Chef Angie's special tartar sauce), clam appetizers, mini sandwiches and pastries.
The American Safari Cruise yachts sound very comfortable, if not luxurious. There is one crew member per two guests, en suites, some with Jacuzzis, underwater camera connected to large flat screen and equipment for the energetic such as mountain bikes, kayaks, water-skis and mustang suits, whatever they are.
What I learned that was special:
• In Glacier Bay you can see 15,000 - foot mountains rising straight out of the ocean; come face-to-face with massive glaciers, their blue faces rising some 200 feet above the sea; and experience the thunderous roar of ice as it "calves" into the water.
