After getting married this past July, we celebrated our honeymoon on a beautiful cruise amidst the breathtaking scenery of Alaska. Having always been a Caribbean junky, I was a bit skeptical about this trip at first. But, boy was I wrong! It was every bit as serene and beautiful as the pictures look and more!
Our trip started out of Vancouver, B.C. (beautiful city) and went all the way up to Whittier, Alaska, stopping in a number of different towns along the way. These stops in Alaska were my favorite part of the trip, as you're able to pick different land excursions based on your interests. We are pretty active and like the outdoors, so we did some kayaking and whale watching, as well as probably my favorite excursion...meeting the Iditarod dog sled teams. These dogs are amazing! They are so well behaved and friendly.
Once you are back on the ship, the "ahh" inspiring moments keep on coming! From almost anywhere on the ship you can look out at the most remarkable landscape of ocean and forest. Nature is at its peak, with bald eagles soaring above you and whales, otters and sea lions foraging for food right a next to the boat. It feels surreal.
The point is....if you haven't gone....Go!!!
Alaska is Breathtaking!!!
