  • This is one Alaska cruise day we have been waiting for! We finally get to visit Ketchikan, Alaska! We visit Spring Barry, owner of Woodlands Clothing, and then we head out to the Alaska Rainforest Sanctuary where we saw seals, eagles, and totems, and were blown away by the beauty of their location! Before heading back to our ship we had an amazing lunch at 108 Taphouse & Burger Bar and then toured historic Creek Street.
    Back on the ship, we headed out to our balcony to watch as we pulled away from Ketchikan. Then we grabbed dinner before heading to an Elton John tribute show and playing some more trivia.

    As a former Alaskan (with family still in Anchorage) I so appreciate your perspective! We're actually leaving on the Royal Princess in 12 days on the same itinerary you did because our Mexico/CA Coastal cruises on the Diamond were just canceled two weeks ago. I never really considered doing an Alaskan cruise before since I've lived there off and on since I was 3 but this was the only cruise that left the same weekend as our canceled cruises. So here we are. AND as a forestry/outdoor rec major I am even more excited to visit Ketchikan now. Thank you for your great content!

    Can you just take a taxi there then do a self guided tour in the rainforest? We only have 5 hrs there on our cruise. When do the shops generally open? I love your videos. I’ve learned so much and you’re a foodie! 😃Thanks so much!

    KETCHICAN, has always been one of my favorites! Thanks for refreshing all my Memories of the 2 times we have been there! The totems were a big hit for me, so much so i wanted to buy a big one for my front yard! Ended up, with a smaller version that sits on my living souvenir shelf! Lol! We had Rain both times there, but still loved seeing the rain forest, Creek street and the Salmon running! We were there the week of August 21st the last time. Great Vlogs! Vickie from SE Pa

    When we did our Disney A;aska cruise in June 2018 Ketchikan was super sunny and no rain. In fact, it was very hot that day and I was sweating...that was not part of my Alaska plan. haha

    • @LeggLife

    I've been watching your series on your Alaskan Princess cruise. I actually have my graduation cruise coming up and we decided to do a cruise tour. Thank you for all the information on Alaska. One question I do have though. You said in your very first video on this series that you originally booked an interior room. I've heard the only way to cruise Alaska is a balcony cabin. If you could go back and book your cruise again, would you automatically book a balcony cabin?
