WOWWWW!!!
I am very happy for you!
An unforgettable experience!
I assure you!
I did a cruise Christmas-New Year for our wedding trip in 1996 ... and I assure you I remember every single day!
And a fact ... You eat 6 times a day ... but it will end the cruise with less weight than up! Because you will be moving all day, lots of fruit available and the dishes are small!
Ah ... if ... try a Malbec Argentino! Insurance will enjoy and remember me! Hahaha!
Enjoy every moment!
A hug!

I'm so happy for you!!!! You are going to LOVE cruising to Alaska!!! It's an absolutely glorious trip!! ;) ;) How long is your cruise? Once you get to Alaska, are you going to do what is a called a land cruise, too? We sailed with Princess Cruise Lines and did a land cruise up to Fairbanks, Denali and then came back to Anchorage where we boarded out flight home. 8-)

Have a wonderful time...I'll be thinking about you! And please share the details with us when you get back. I especially hope you will tell us about the excursions you take. What cruise line are you on, and how many days?[/quote]
--------------
And what kind of clothes did you get for the trip? I'm sure no one insists on formal wear, but levis and boots are too far down to even think about, so what would be best? Good pant suits? Slacks and light blazers? Good, less than cocktail type dress for dinners? I'm talking older ladies, not 30 somethings who go traveling while "hunting" for two legged game.
Enquiring minds want to know. My sister and I have been discussing going on a cruise. We've already found a nice vet to board our cats.

We went to the Caribbean so our "dress code" was shorts, polos or tshirts and sandals or sneakers (or water shoes!) every day. When we "dressed up", we wore nice slacks and a shirt. The dress code for dressy nights basically said "no jeans, collared shirts and no flipflops" but some ladies were in beautiful gowns and the gentlemen in tuxes. To each, their own. Check the website for your cruise line about clothes; they all differ. We were on Carnival. Oh---and not sure we're "older"---but we are both 49.

Alaska is so beautiful! I took a book with me and didn't read one chaoter as evry 5 minutes the scenery changed. Take layers to dress in during the day as it can be windy and cool. You documents should tell you the dress code for dinner time. Try to get close to the glaciers as they are geting smaller every day. Just enjoy!!
