My Daily Alaskan Cruise Blog Coming to Mr Papa’s World
June 12, 2007
Thursday we leave on a flight to Vancouver to begin our long awaited Alaskan cruise adventure onboard the Celebrity Mercury. The ship doesn’t actually depart Vancouver until Friday, but we get into Vancouver pretty late and won’t have time to enjoy the city. In fact, we are just staying at an airport hotel with plans to get an early start the next day.
If you remember, this is a family reunion cruise with my Mother, her sister and my sister Barb and her husband Walt. We have all been looking forward to this cruise. None of my family or Sean and Savannah, have been to Alaska before, so they are really excited. Suzanne and I cruise to Alaska 14 years ago on our honeymoon cruise. Alaskan cruising wasn’t nearly as popular back then as we were always the only ship in port. Today, from what I read, there will always be multiple ships in port. Hopefully, the increase in the number of people won’t be noticeable.
Through out the cruise be sure to check in at Mr Papa’s World for my daily cruise blog. I will post about what we did and saw each day. If things get hectic, I may not get a post up each day, but I will make a post for each day and catch up when I can. On our last cruise to Mexico, I only doubled up on one day.
You can also check out Suzanne’s daily cruise blog over at Cruise Talk Central and compare my daily blog to hers.
Bon Voyage!

Finally, Cloudcroft Trip Picutres Available
June 2, 2007
If you remember, last December, we took a trip to Cloudcroft, NM for five days to spend some time with Suzanne’s family in a mountain cabin. It was a nice, fun family reunion between Christmas and New Years.
It’s only six months later, but finally, we have uploaded our many photos from that trip. It was a fun time with ice skating, tubing, skiing and family fun. Enjoy the photos! Just click on image to the right to be taken to the photo gallery for this trip.
It’s only a few weeks until we take our cruise to Alaska on the Celebrity Mercury with some of my family. We seem to be in a nice cycle of family reunions. Next year, my family is planning a get together in Michigan. With Suzanne’s Dad retired and her Mother following suit this September, and my Mother finally talking about hanging it up next March, maybe we will get to see them more often.
