    Your documentary was great! You covered so much that we are very excited about our upcoming Alaska cruise with Norwegian in June 2022. We will be visiting some of the same ports and can’t wait. Your information was very helpful in regards to embarkation, COVID testing, it being cold and rainy and suggesting to bring layered clothing as well as rain gear and also information regarding the internet packages. I agree with other post, you were so down to earth and I could relate and did not mind watching the entire documentary. It gives us so much to look forward to. I would like to know if the water was calm from Seattle to Alaska? Again, great documentary!

    Thank you so much for your vlog, at first I thought …hmmm over 2 hr video ?? But it was so informative. And I enjoyed your candid take on everything. So much better than the drab ones showing the same thing, blah blah this is the closet blah blah. I am definitely changing my wardrobe, no one really shows how much it rains or how cold it might be, especially the shoe selection will have to change. Thanks for that. And I didn’t know about all the docking changes.that will make a difference when I choose my shore excursions.

    That shuttle to town from a port that is 7 miles from town is a nightmare. Next time cruise on HAL, they will also make sure you see the glaciers! HAL has been cruising Alaska for decades!

    If you have no outer water proof shoes t o keep your feet dry use a disposable shower cap inside your shoes. Put on you sox the thicker the better and then put your foot into a shower cap or a plastic bag. Then put your foot into your shoes. (Trim the excess length off the plastic bag if it is too long) so your shoes may be wet but your feet will be dry and warmer than wet sox feet.

    I did the Norwegian joy out of Seattle when it first got to the United States in 2019. Agree the food was great the drop slide was fun. Did a white water rafting in front of the glacier in Juneau and down a river also very enjoyable. Love your video.

    I've been on three Norwegian cruises and I found the dining very very good. taste was not the main dining room but one of those side ones. The specialty dining was also good the French, Japanese restaurant and Brazilian restaurant was also good worth the extra money for the dining experience.

Wondered which side was better on this cruise to see the glaciers and whales? That was a bummer the ship didn’t turn around do you could see the glacier! They made me wonder what dude was best? Thanks for the great video! I can’t edit till my cruise even though I think we’re going to freeze!

    In preparation for my August Alaska cruise on the Encore, I watched your documentary. Y'all did a fine job and now I have enough information to make a plan. I enjoy all your postings but this one struck home. The only thing that could make my adventure perfect would be to have that cutie pie in video on the ship, you know, the one with the short hair and glasses. (don't tell her husband, I have enough problems)

    Hi Griff & Alyssa. Loooooove your videos ❤️ we booked our NCL Alaska cruise for October 16 through the 23rd 2022. I am curious to know when you went on your cruise, was it September or October?… Because I am seeing some negative reviews on the web about not being able to see any whales or Bears so late in the year due to the colder weather 😔
    plz lmk, thanks
    P.S. your Alaska packing video was amazing !!! and it helped me a lot to start planning… I know, I’m very early, but this way I am able to get some deals on winter clothing should I need to add to what I already have since I live in Miami
