Gee, so nice photos, awesome. I'm speechless and I'm sure my husband would appreciate your pictures because he is interested in Alaska since he was a boy. If only we have the money maybe we would be going to Alaska for a tour just so my husband would see the ice and snow and prairie during summer. Is that photo of the bear shot in the wilderness? A great photo you have there.
Corzhen, I also wanted to go for ages. My husband has never cared to go. So I went by myself. And paid only half the fare, as I opened myself up to be a roommate . Got a nice roommate, who herself had always wanted to go and her husband did not either. The "WE" in your statement does not have to be for cost, if he wanted to so much for so long to go, that is a way. The fares listed are for a couple, you have to inquire how much for single and offer the roommate situation. He should go, before its too late. That is how I felt, before I could not walk, before I could not climb in and out of the Zodiac to explore the islands, and travel in the small areas and see what I saw. Age creeps up quickly and sometime the inability to do certain things. Check out the Linbland/National Geographic, which is a small boat, it houses only 55 guests. There are other small boats that do almost the same, but with the one I was on you get staff with Doctor degrees teaching you stuff and explaining to you what your seeing, like a teaching trip also. Many cruise lines have the extras you have to sign up for, on this cruise line it was all included in the price. (except for booz). And this is the only cruise line I ever wanted to use for this trip for the last 20 years. By the way my roommate was wonderful, we are good friends now, just wished she lived closer, she lives in Texus. At least we have facebook.
