Had to say hi, and what a great video from a Juneauite…..I live just down from Mendenhall Glacier. I walk to it almost daily. Hope you come back!

@@lindsayslivealittle you’re so welcome! I truly mean it too. It’s very hard to find good solid cruise KZreadrs these days. It’s hard to be one myself as I’m only 13 years old. We’re sailing on the bliss may 4th and I think I’ve found the perfect KZreadrs to get me in the mood for my 13th cruise at 13 years old!

FYI, b/c you mention in your video Haines actually has the largest concentration of bald eagles in the world. They have a festival in November when they start to gather along the Chilkat River.

We really can’t understand how there are so many. We did a land portion on our first trip and driving from Anchorage to Homer, it was just like the move Birds but all the bald eagles. We will have to check out Haines and the bald eagle festival. Adding it to our list. Emma & Jack

Where did you get the rental car through in Juneau? Was it a company or private? And how did you get a car seat for your little one? We are going on NCL Sun in July with our 5 year old

@lindsayslivealittle

We rented private through Turo. Great experience and they picked us up at the ship. For the car seat, we bought a Pico Portabel Car seat since we travel quite a bit. Fits in a backpack and then we don’t have to pay for car seats when we travel. Highly suggest it as it grows to a booster seat so will also forever! Have an amazing time! Emma & Jack

Hi guys! Planning our trip departing 3/28 from Vancouver heading up to Seward! Our first stop is Juneau. Unfortunately we arrive at 2 p.m. and depart at 10 pm. Due to lack of time, i was concerned about seeing as much as we wanted to in Juneau. We really want to make sure we see the Mendenhall glacier and the falls. Would we only have time for that excursion based on our time constraints? Thanks

@lindsayslivealittle

3 ай бұрын

You will have plenty of time to visit the glacier and waterfalls and probably enjoy some of the shops downtown. On our last visit we rented a car from Turo and went to the glacier. Would suggest looking into that option as you can manage your time better vs a cruise excursion.

How long were you in Juneau? We dock at 1pm and leave at 10pm so just trying to see what we can fit in.

That is typical for any ship. I believe we may have had a couple more hours than you but Poppy needed a nap and bed by 7 so we weren’t out the whole time. We have done that itinerary before. It is plenty of time and I think better than the morning time slot.

Do you with the Big blue Bus do you need to book ahead of time or can you book in port snd if so where you’d get tickets? Thanks!

Hi! What dates did you go? Seems no snow

@lindsayslivealittle

This episode was from late September. Don’t expect it to snow during the cruise season and where the cruise ship go is a temperate rainforest so snowfall isn’t as high as the rest of Alaska.

You were cruise late September, were you lucky enough to see any Northern lights?

@lindsayslivealittle

We did not see the Northern Lights on that specific trip. May have caught a glimpse on a previous sailing to Alaska in early May but haven’t seen a good display of the lights yet.

So two questions, hope that is ok. 1. Which side of the ship do you recommend for a balcony room while doing the Alaskan cruise, leaving from Seattle. Or with it being a round-trip does it matter. 2. Which section is best for a room Front, middle or back of ship and is it better to be higher up floors or lower floors. Appreciate it

@lindsayslivealittle

@@user-sm5gw5le4u if you start with the inside passage then we would suggest starboard but it doesn’t really matter. And Mid ship on a higher floor would be our reco.

when you are exploring on your own, is there a chance that you could run into a bear accidentally?

@lindsayslivealittle

2 ай бұрын

There is always a chance and even chances while in town as bears will come into towns to eat. But if it concerns you, there are several hikes that are well trafficked, very close to town and thus reduces potential of running into a bear accidentally.

So getting off of the ship is we as walking distance to the town of Juneau?

@lindsayslivealittle

4 ай бұрын

You can definitely walk to town. If you go with Encore or Bliss it is a little over a mile to town. However where we docked with the Sun it is less than half a mile.
