After years of talking about taking an Alaskan cruise, I finally had the chance to cruise Alaska earlier this month! My husband became a fan of cruising after our cruise on the Jade  around Greece  last October, so before we even disembarked that ship, we put down deposits for future cruises. I used the opportunity to push for Alaska, and we ended up booking for mid-May because my husband was so impatient to have our next cruise on the calendar rather than waiting until later in the summer, haha!
