Cruising To Alaska Again

The elder monkeys just got back from a 3 week land based trip to Japan and had a wonderful time.  I enjoyed it also because I was able to tame Godzilla and make lots of new friends.

They agreed that they missed having sea days since they weren't cruising so I planted in their minds that they needed to take a cruise before their next planned vacation.  Mind Control by the Monkey works every time.  They have booked a cruise out of San Francisco to Alaska in July.  They have done a similar cruise out of Vancouver before but wanted a longer cruise with more sea days.

We will be sailing on the Grand Princess out of San Francisco at the end of July.

They have booked the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco for the night before the cruise.

We will be doing all the tourist things in San Francisco, since they seldom did them when they lived in the Bay Area.

Golden Gate Bridge

Join us as we play in San Francisco, cruise under the Golden Gate, spend enjoyable days at sea, visit Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan in Alaska, visit Glacier Bay, and have afternoon tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC.  And I promise to get in as much trouble as possible without getting thrown overboard.
