    “Falling” was SO good! Such a quick read! Loved it! “Drowning” is the follow-up book and it’s great too.

    Loving these cruise videos!
    As a potter/ ceramic artist I wanted to mention one thing… the ceramic pieces are not hand sculpted. Not to belittle the beautiful glazing and craftsmanship of the elders, but they are most likely commercial ceramic molds. So this does keep the costs down. I love that you are such staunch supporters of hand made in all forms!

    I would LOVE to recommend a "vlogging while on vacay" podcast/YT vid because the two of you are killing the vlogging game during this trip. 🤎 Super informative.

    We were so lucky on our Alaskan cruise last year in May. It never rained the entire week and was like 70 or more the entire time. I even sat on my balcony in bare feet and a T shirt through part of Glacier Bay!

    The little clam shell, Sherri can put her small earrings or rings in. What a beautiful video you guys! OMG those spine urchin earrings are so beautiful and how unique! The fog was so eerie. You both looked so great for dinner! That scallop looked so delicious and in fact your whole meal looked so good!

    Pretty sure you have helped the Pioneer Home gift shop by showing it and talking about it. They should become recipients of “The Legg Life Effect”. 😀

    After seeing this video, I purchased The Great Alone. Oh my goodness, it was so good. It was such a good read, I couldn't put it down. It's a very sad and loving read. Thank you for sharing this book. And can I just say you two are as cute as a button. I smile after watching you guys. Your love for each other is beautiful ❤❤

    In Denmark we call the bid dipper "karlsvognen". Directly translated karls wagon. Karl is a word for man and vognen is wagon, so in essence it would be the mans wagon in English 😄

    wow I love the history!!! I would have to buy a gift from the pioneer home that is so amazing. what a great memory. The dragon is so beautiful. I need the quotes from that shop - so funny. My oldest son would live in the book store - I always get worried when he says he is going to Powell's in portland 😀

    We visited Sitka on a cruise with Holland America 7 years ago. The itinerary was changed just weeks before leaving,from Skagway to Sitka. My husband was so disappointed not to be able to go on the White Pass Railway. We were going with friends so we didn’t want to cancel so we went with it. Sitka was amazing and we were so glad that we got to go there. As you said it is not easy to find an itinerary with Sitka on it. We also found the Pioneer Home and went in the gift shop. We were just as thrilled as you were and also bought a few things. One thing we got to do is watch a dance company at the Community Centre who did traditional Russian/Ukranian dances. They had travelled all over the world and they were fabulous! We enjoyed the church too and also visited a home that was historically restored, I believe it was the Russian Bishop’s house. I would recommend that if it is still open. We would go back to Sitka any time. My husband had to wait 7 years to get to Skagway but we just came back from that cruise and the White Pass Railway excursion did not disappoint.

    I am enjoying the Tales of "Sea LEGGS" . Last 3 mornings I have been so excited to login to PC, get a Drink and a snack and enjoy your Vlog. I worry about tendering from ship to shore and back since I am as unsteady on my feed as a new born deer. Adam you are looking so Dapper. Bow ties IMHO are your Jam . Sherri not sure how you do it but you look elegant yet comfortable :). I really like your Black Dress. Looked great on you .

    • @LeggLife
      @LeggLife  7 месяцев назад +1

      We normally don't like the tender ports, but Seabourn did SUCH a great job! We never had any issues and they made sure everyone, regardless of mobility, was safe and taken care of.

    We are about to go on this same cruise. We were turned off by the literature that said you had to wear a tux to get into the restaurant after 6pm. It looks like that really isn't true. You guys looked great, and that's the attire we want to wear. Can we get into the restaurant without a tux and ballroom gown.

    When you were sitting in your reading nook in the main lobby area talking about nobody being around, is that the ship moving or are you naturally swaying. Was making me motion sick to watch! So my question, do either of you get motion sick and how did it compare to being on a larger ship?
