Video summary

This seven-night voyage aboard the Disney Wonder marked the narrator's first time sailing out of Vancouver to explore Alaska, an experience defined by exceptional weather and unforgettable adventures. The journey began with a sail-away party featuring unique views of planes taking off from the water, followed by rotational dining that introduced new venues like Tiana's Place and Triton's. Throughout the trip, the group enjoyed diverse culinary delights ranging from steak and crème brûlée to regional specialties such as Klondike Doughboy fried bread, reindeer sausage, fresh salmon, and fish and chips at various ports. Despite one rainy day at sea that slightly marred the experience, the overall atmosphere remained magical, culminating in a full day at sea before disembarking in Florida. The cruise offered a rich tapestry of excursions, with Skagway emerging as the narrator's favorite port due to its picturesque gold rush history and charming local museums. Highlights included visiting the Red Onion Saloon, attempting to eat massive Alaskan king crab legs, and taking a memorable dog sledding excursion where guests rode in carts pulled by named sled dogs, learned about their care, and even petted puppies at a training camp. Another standout experience was the glacier viewing trip to Dos Glacier, where visitors could touch ancient ice chunks harvested from the water, enjoy "glacieritas" made with real glacial ice, and watch waterfalls while observing wildlife. The adventure continued at Icy Strait Point with superior whale watching views from the ship and a bear viewing trip to Chichof Island, where brown bears outnumbered humans two-to-one as they feasted on salmon in the wilderness. The final leg of the journey included a stop at Ketchikan, celebrated as the "salmon capital of the world" and known for its Creek Street boardwalk and historic red light district. Here, travelers engaged in activities such as attending the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show, axe throwing, exploring local shops, and enjoying treats like donuts and burgers at Burger Queen. The day concluded with a thrilling ride on the steep Skyliner gondola system, which provided scenic mountain views and access to amenities like the Crab House. In her final recap, the narrator strongly recommended the dog sledding excursion for its emotional connection with the animals, the bear combo tour for witnessing nature up close, and the adult-exclusive glacier viewing tour for its unique ice-based drinks, declaring this trip the best cruise experience of her life.

Hey friends, today we are going to Alaska on the Disney Wonder and I am so excited. We set sail for seven nights out of Vancouver and I wanted to make a video and share my whole cruise experience with you. We have some incredible excursions scheduled. We're going to eat at all of the restaurants, explore the ship, and have a cozy Alaskan Disney wonder kind of week. Anywho, let's go do this. This is my first time sailing out of Vancouver. In fact, it's my first time going to Alaska. And I got to say, it is beautiful out. Temperatures are in the low 60s, and I'm excited to get a break from all the heat in Orlando. And I'm excited to show you uh what it's like to go on an Alaskan cruise with Disney. This is my fifth Disney cruise. I've been on the Treasure, the Destiny, the Wish, and the Magic, and now officially the Wonder. But it's also the longest cruise I've ever been on. Seven nights in Alaska. And we're going to be stopping at multiple ports. In each port, we have a special excursion already booked cuz I want to get the full Alaskan experience for glacier viewing day. We're going to go out and get close to the glacier and make glacier margaritas. And then in Skagway, we're going to go on a dog sled adventure where we're going to go sledding with real dogs and we're going to be able to pet the puppies and it's going to be amazing. And then Icy Point, we have a whale and bear watching excursion where we're going to hopefully see a whale hop out of water and maybe bear snatch up some salmons, which would be phenomenal. And then in Ketchacan, we got the great Alaskan show that I've been wanting to see for a long time. In fact, this Alaskan trip is like a dream come true for me. I've always wanted to come here. So, thank you guys for watching the videos. If it wasn't for you, I would never have this opportunity. and my friends are with me, too. So, I'm going to have, you know, all of my pals to enjoy all the amazing adventures with. So, now I think it's time to board the ship and let the uh wonder begin. We came into Vancouver last night and stayed at the Fairmont waterfront because it's right across the street from the cruise terminal, and it looks like the Disney Wonder is coming into dock right now. Look at how awesome that is. We're going to watch the ship dock before we board. Well, look at her out there. >> Coming in hot. >> Coming in hot. That's our home for the next seven nights. You guys excited? You pumped? >> Ready? >> I know. Beauty. >> I'm ready for Churro Mickey waffles. >> Churro Mickey waffles in Alaska. >> Cozy. >> I highly recommend staying here at the Fairmont waterfront if you plan on going on this cruise because you get to just wake up and go across the street and it's amazing that we can see the ship from our room and even from the hotel lobby. And shout out to Be Our Guest Vacations for helping me book this actual cruise. They made it so simple and easy, even with the excursions. I just told them like what I wanted to do. I was like, "We want to see bears and we want to see whales and we we want to go dog sledding." And they literally just booked everything for us. So very, very thankful for them inviting us out and giving us a chance to show you kind of what it's like to do an Alaskan cruise. So now, uh, like I said, it's time to go on the ship. We're packed and ready. And here we go. We're boarding the ship. Wow. I always love seeing the different grand halls. >> Thank you. Wow. Thanks. Oh, and look, Ariel's the statue. I love this part of the cruise. This is my favorite. Well, now that we boarded the ship, we're going to go up to the room. I'll give you a little room tour. We're going to get all settled in. Then it's time to get ready for the sail away party. And I am so excited to sail away from Vancouver. I think this is going to be one of probably the best experiences ever. The scenery here with the mountains and the trees and the nature, it's just so beautiful. And here is our room for the next seven nights. We got a deluxe family ocean view stateoom with a veranda. And it's the same layout as the magic ship because this is like a sister ship to that one. You have two bathrooms, one with a toilet and a sink, the other one with a shower and a sink, and it sleeps up to five people. You have one big queen right here, and then the couch pulls out to a sleeper. One drops down from the ceiling, and then another one folds down from over here. But you got plenty of dresser space, a nice little television, and I love all of the artwork. Like over here, you got Donald on vacation. Isn't this so cool? But my favorite thing, you know, it's got to be the veranda. Look how beautiful this is. Oh, I cannot wait to just sit out here and see the Alaskan nature. Look at the plane actually taking off. Wow, this is so beautiful. This is going to be such an amazing cruise. I'm so excited. We're still at port, so it's probably a little loud, but uh we're going to open up a bottle of champagne and then get ready to sail away. It's a tradition. It's a Disney Cruise Line tradition. Woo! >> Let's get this party started. >> Cheese plate and champagne to Canada. To Canada. Look at this view, too. Wow. This is going to be absolutely incredible. Cheers to Alaska. Cheers >> to Alaska. >> To Alaska. to Alaska. >> Alaska. >> I think it's so cool how there's literal planes just taking off in the water here. They have like a kind of runway. Look, cuz the planes are lined up. There's another plane coming in on the other side. And you can see a Chevron gas station in the middle there. That must be where the uh planes are fueling up. Isn't that so cool? I could sit here and watch them take off all day. Well, now that we made it up to the stateateroom and we put all of our stuff away, I think it's time to head back up and get ready for the sail away party. And like I mentioned, I can't wait to sail away from Vancouver. This is absolutely stunning here. And I can't wait to sit out in the veranda, drink coffee, and just look out at the beauty of Alaska. It's going to be so incredible, and I'm honored to share this whole cruise experience with you. It's going to be a good one. This is going to be a memorable one. Disney here. Make some noise. Disney. >> It's my goofy dance. >> Disney wonder. The moment we've all been waiting for. It's time to say goodbye to Canada. And hello to your Disney cruise vacation. So that means it's time to count for five. Here we go. 5 4 3 2 1 and look at this view. Wow. What a way to sail away. Now it's time to sail away from Vancouver. I'm going to miss seeing these mountains though. But we got to start our Alaskan cruise. And I can't wait to just explore the ship with all of you. Like I mentioned, we're here for seven nights. So, we're going to have plenty of time to go over all the restaurants and lounges. And I'm excited for the rotational dining. They have Animator's Pallet here, which was my favorite restaurant on the Magic. And then they have Tiana's Place and Tritons. a lot of new restaurants that I've never eaten at. So, it's gonna be a lot of fun and I can't wait to just uh take it all in. Like I said, we're here. WE'RE GOING TO ALASKA. GOODBYE, VANCOUVER. We'll see you in 7 days. Wow, look at that sunset. We're taking off. We're heading to Alaska. I think we're going to go up to the top deck so we can see the sunset a little bit better. We're all excited. Yeah, the sunset looks really >> I know. Oh, wow. >> Wow. Just in time. >> I'm still kind of shocked on how cool it is. I'm used to being on cruise ships where it's super super hot and I'm like super sweaty, but right now I feel like easy breezy beautiful covergirl. Wow. Look at us going underneath this bridge and then the flying V with the birds up there. Wow. Oh, this is majestic. And just like that, we are on our way. And how cool and majestic was it to go underneath the bridge going during a sunset? That normally isn't the time you actually disembark. Usually it's earlier in the evening, but we had a delayed start. And tomorrow we have a full day at sea. I wasn't planning on making a video because the day after we're actually going to Glacier Viewing, so I probably will just jump right to Glacier Viewing, but tonight I wanted to give you a look at some of the restaurants and lounges and the rotational dining changes. You'll eat at, you know, different restaurants multiple times a night. And since I've never uh went to Tiana's before, I figured that would be a good way to start. So, we're going to get ready for uh some dinner at Tiana's. I love seeing all of the door decorations for the Alaskan cruise. Look at uh Goofy, Donald, Minnie, all in their Alaskan gear. Look at these lights right here, too. Normally, whenever I do cruises, I usually bring a bunch of Roosevelt shirts so I can be on themed with like the dinners. And I have a Princess and Frog one, but I only pack flannels and hoodies cuz we're going to Alaska. And that's literally all I brought. But I'm excited for Tiana's place. It's a dinner show. I think they're going to have entertainment. Tiana's going to probably come out and sing and some New Orleans cuisine. Right outside Tiana's place, they actually have a French Quarter themed lounge. Look at this. And get some really tasty drinks, hang out, listen to some jazz music. This is a very cozy area. And then the restaurant is just down here. I can't wait to actually eat here. I'm so hungry, too. And I like all of the uh decorations in here. Look at that big sign up there. Tiana's place. Definitely feel like we're walking into the French Quarter. Oh, look. They have another sign right over here, too. This is cozy. Got beads hanging from the ceiling. Wow. I am so excited for this on the magic. I think this is the Rapunzel uh restaurant. >> Oh, I see Tiana. I love that Tiana and Louis walk around and actually greet the tables. So, even if you're not sitting close to the stage, you still have like a character interaction with them. And I think that's so cool cuz if you're in the way back, you can't really see the stage. Oh, look who's coming. >> Wow. >> I think he blew you a kiss, Kristen. >> He was HE BLEW YOU A KISS. I'M KIND of in a little dilemma because there's multiple entre I want. And if you didn't know, you can order as much as you want on Disney Cruise Line, but I think I'm going to just try to stick to the top two and maybe get some of the sides of the other ones cuz the most important thing is the sides. The sides look phenomenal. Look at how beautiful this menu is, even the front. And I was trying to show you uh the menu out front, but this is a little bit better. If you notice, they have James roasted pork tenderloin. And that comes with induli sausage gumbo. And then they also have the roasted creole half chicken with toasted corn pecan bread pudding. So I'm kind of torn between those two. But I also want to get Big Daddy's pot roasted prime rib. Big daddy's roasted prime rib. I just don't like the sides for that. So we're going to try to do some customizing. >> Are you getting Big Daddy's >> Big Daddy? >> Yeah, Big Daddy's prime rib. Fair enough. How's everybody doing? >> Oh, the show's starting. >> Fantastic. Let's have some fun. Now, I know. >> Nothing like some good jazz music with some good food. >> Thanks to our daddy. Big daddy. >> Big daddy. >> For my appetizer, I got some shrimp and grits. Look at that. And I love the plates in here. It looks so good. And these look like some pretty beefy shrimp. Got to do a little pinch and pull. What are those? >> Sean got some of Mama OD's tomato soup. And then the uh bodane uh frers. I might try some. Can I try some? >> Really good. I just tried them. >> Nothing's going to beat that though. This grits was so good. I'm going to put a little grits on it. I also don't know where my fork is, so I'm using the butter knife. That's good for my entree. I got the pork tenderloin and it actually comes with sausage gumbo and they put the sausage gumbo in the bottom of the bowl here with rice. This looks so good actually. I'm impressed with the food here. It's not often you eat gumbo with the fork, but I'm going for it. I also had to try the prime rib, too. Sean, whose prime rib is that? OH, >> BYE, LOUIS. >> OH, look it. She's carrying his tail for him. >> Well, dinner was amazing. I really loved how Tiana and Louis walked around the restaurant. I wish that some of the food was more kind of like New Orleans style. Like the gumbo being laid out underneath the pork was kind of fancy, but I'd rather just have a cup of gumbo itself. And we're going to be eating there multiple times. Like I said, the rotational dining changes and because we're on the ship for seven nights, we have to eat at each restaurant multiple times. But I really enjoyed it and it was nice to eat at a new restaurant that I haven't been before. But we'll be back there. In fact, I think we're going to be eating there for frozen night uh when we do the glacier viewing, which is when I'll probably pick up this video. Tomorrow is our day at sea, but they're expecting rain all day. So, I figured uh instead of adding it in the video, we just relax and hang out a little bit and then get right to the glacier action. So, I guess uh we'll see you in the morning. See you in the morning for some glacier viewing. And I am so excited. And good morning from sunny Alaska. Look at this beautiful view. Wow. I am so excited to go see some glaciers today. When I woke up this morning and saw the clear skies and the sun, I got so excited. We spent the whole day at sea yesterday and it rained all day. Like, it didn't stop at all. So, we just kind of hung around the ship, went to the spa. I didn't video any of it because I knew we were leading into glacier viewing day today, which we're gonna do the cool glacier viewing uh excursion. We're actually going to get off the boat and go to a smaller boat and go out to the glacier and uh make glacier margaritas. And I'm so excited. That's later on in the video around like 2:00. But we woke up super early because Mickey and Minnie are all doing photos in their Alaskan attire up on the I think the ninth deck. So, uh we decided to match them. We got ourselves some fancy outfits for the occasion. And it's time to get changed and uh start the day. Yo, get up there tight. That's it. I'm not going. I finally think we're ready to go meet Mickey. He usually has a long line. So, we woke up at 7:00 a.m. I think he comes out at 8:30, but uh I'm expecting a lot of people to be there, so we're ready to go. READY TO GO SEE THE MAN HIMSELF. WE'RE GOING FISHING. While we're waiting for Mickey, we can actually see some whales coming out of the water. >> Did you see that whale? >> I saw the tail of that one. >> Wow. >> That was a great whale. >> I know that coffee keeping you warm. >> Oh, yeah. Just got a long day out on the boat fishing. >> The line is moving pretty good now. So, we're going to be making our way up to meet Mickey. I feel a little cold, but I feel like the hat and gloves are keeping me warm. I had to put a baseball cap underneath this so it doesn't fly away cuz there's like nothing. It's very windy up here. Great to meet you. Are we gonna go fishing later? >> Yeah, let's catch a fish. >> A salmon. I want to catch a salmon. >> We're going fishing. Wow, I feel so honored. Where should we go? Right on this side. >> Couple of good little >> Are we holding the straps? Hold the straps. >> All right. Ready? >> Cheese. >> All right. >> Oh, okay. Hold the hats and the straps. >> Cheese. >> Oh, thank you, pal. Appreciate it. That's awesome. >> See you out on the boat. We're going to get some dinner tonight for everyone. >> Yes. >> Thank you, Mickey. I'm so happy we got to meet Mickey. And I'm so happy we brought our fishing outfits. I think he really appreciated it. And the wait was like an hour long. It was definitely the longest character line I think I've ever been in. And now it's time for some breakfast. Some churro Mickey waffles at the buffet. Oh, look. Here comes Minnie in her outfit now, too. Her outfit is really, really warm looking and it has these beautiful mountains in the background where you can actually see snow. Look, there's an island out there. Oh, I've been dreaming about these churo Mickey waffles. Where are they at? >> Uh, two things over. >> Oh, two things over. Oh, this is the line. >> I don't know. >> I also think they do churro Mickey waffles twice on this cruise. Double the waffle, double the pleasure, double the cinnamon so far. And I wanted to come on and officially welcome you all into >> I can eat chur Mickey waffles all day >> and you don't get your fingers sticky. >> Cheers. >> Cheers Mickey waffles. >> Now that we got the churro Mickey waffle business taken care of, it's time to go get a spot for the frozen sing along. They have like a frozen show instead of a pirates night cuz we're in Alaska covered by, you know, snowcovered mountains. And I'm hoping that we might get a cup of hot cocoa and just hang out, enjoy all the views of Alaska as we sail into the uh glacier viewing area. And then, like I said, after that, we're going to go on an excursion where we're going to go out and get close to the glacier and uh have a nice little glacerita. The Frozen show was awesome. And now I think I need some hot cocoa. It's so cold out. They actually have a little hot cocoa station up here. Hot cocoa and cookies. Holy moly. >> Hi. >> Can I have a cup of hot cocoa? >> Oh, hot cocoa and chocolate chip cookies. >> I'll take that any day of the week. I don't know what kind of life we're living. Hot cocoa and chocolate chip cookies in Alaska. Are you hot? We just got back to the room and we're starting to make our way through the glacier viewing area. Look at how beautiful this is. So quiet. The water is so still. Sean's got some binoculars trying to spot some bears and whales. >> Oh yeah, >> we'll be seeing them. We're doing a bear and whale excursion. And I think uh 2 days from now spending the day meeting Mickey, getting churro waffles, drinking hot cocoa. It's been amazing. And now we're going to get ready to get off the ship and get up close with the glaciers and get a look at uh the wonders of Alaska. Alaska bubbly blessed. A little champagne before we go on the glaze. >> Doss glacier. >> Woo! Hey, >> Literally, there are glaciers or iceberg chunks just floating around in the water. We're definitely creeping up on it. >> Cheers to glaciers. >> To glaciers. >> Enrique glacier. >> We are all checked in and we're going to be making our way to the uh Dos Glacier straight ahead there. And I can't wait. This is pretty amazing. And it got so much colder, didn't it? We all got matching scarves cuz we want to have nice fancy pictures. Oh, this is a pretty small boat. Holy moly. Wow. And I love my little scarf. Look at that. >> We're nice and cozy. >> There she goes. We'll see you soon. So from this tiny boat. >> Getting a good shot of the wonder there, Sean. >> Oh, she's beautiful. >> They do have food and beverages on here. And they have an indoor outdoor section. So if you don't want to be outside, you can sit inside. It's kind of cozy. They have chairs. Oh, we're going up to the top of the boat. Holy moly, look at this beautiful view. Wow. They said that this goes 300 feet under the water and I think like 17 miles all the way back. I don't know if that's 100% true or not, but this is spectacular. Holy moly. It's absolutely crazy how close we are to this. >> It is. Did you see the ice with your two eyeballs? >> Yeah, I watched it happen. A big chunk of ice just came right down from there. >> We got to go get the glacerita now. Got to cheers with the glacier. Really? I could touch it? >> Yeah. >> You could touch the glacier. You wanted to lick it earlier. >> Like I mentioned before, they actually have an indoor seating section, too. And it's kind of warm and toasty in here. And you get pretty good views. Look at that. >> And they can just sit down and kind of take it all in. Did you touch that glacier? >> Touched it? >> Yeah. >> She said it could be up to a,000 years old. >> 1,000 years old. That's wild. us together. >> He is made with the glacier, >> which is pretty crazy. I also didn't believe it. My first time ever out here last season, nobody tells you about this. And so I got out here and they were like, "Ellie, you've never been out here before. You need to go get the ice." And I was like, "Haha, you guys are hilarious." Like, >> "Yeah, I'll go get ice for drinks." And then I was standing on the front of the boat wearing a life jacket, holding a net, and was like, "Oh, okay. I guess we're getting glazed." They literally just pull the ice up with a net. >> They literally pull it out of the water with a net. >> So these ice cubes,000 years old. >> They're around 1,000 years old. Yes. >> Wow. >> And they were probably attached to the glacier a couple hours ago. >> That's >> Wow. That is wild. >> Cheers to glaciers. That's some high quality H2O. Cheers. >> The glacerita. Cheers is what I've been looking forward to. >> Glacerita. Cheers. >> Pretty sure there's debris in my ice cube. They also said that this ice actually fell off Doss Glacier just about an hour ago. Isn't that crazy? And when they were walking around with ice chunks that they were allowing people to touch them, literally were falling off as we were here. This is such a cool experience. And it's a pretty good margarita. Oh, that's pretty cool. It's pretty heavy, too. >> There she is in all her wonder. Time to head back to the ship. >> I feel like you guys are sad. >> Absolutely not. >> But look at how cool it is. The ship is like completely surround. >> I think I might cry. This might be the most beautiful. >> All this ice in the water. >> This is beautiful. I got to finish it. >> We just found out you can also get soda on Glacier Ice. So, we're gonna get uh some soda pops on Glacier Ice. >> I'm kind of sad they don't have Diet Coke. Diet Coke on Glacier Ice would have been iconic, but I went for a diet Dr. Pepper instead. >> Yeah, I got Dr. Pepper on Glacier Ice. >> I'm just impressed they got a fruit plate. >> We got you sparkling water on glacing glacier ice. >> That's That sounds so bubbly. >> Yeah. Enrique and glacier. >> Leaking glacier. >> That's my favorite. >> Cheers to soda on glacier ice. >> Cheers. Lemon pure Alaska sparkling water Dr. Pepper I'll ever have. >> I'll have doctor's orders. >> And take a look at this waterfall here. It goes all the way from up there down here. Isn't that remarkable? This is so beautiful being out here. Unforgettable moment here. We just got back on the ship and I got to say that was one of the coolest experiences I think I've ever had in my life. I would highly recommend this excursion. I think it's worth the money just going out to the glacier. But it's a lot more than that. You go on like a three-hour adventure, get to see beautiful wildlife, waterfalls, and getting to drink Glacierita with the ice and learn so much. That was so breathtaking. like I I'm going to probably remember this forever and I'm so happy that I got to experience it and make a little video to show you. Now I kind of want to just hang out in the room kind of just recap and digest everything that just happened. I mean I just want to look at my photos and videos to relive the moment. That's how cool it was. And uh we ordered some room service. So I got some chicken noodle soup on the way. The perfect thing. Yeah. Let's just take a look what's in here. Oh, is that yours? >> A little penny. That's fine, but I'll share it. >> Chicken strips and French fries. >> French fries. >> Then we got the cheese board. >> Oh, this is me, too. >> Oh, tomato soup and grilled cheese. >> More cheese board. >> Oh, where are your soup? >> Oh my gosh. >> Oh, chicken noodle soup. >> That's all we need. There's one more under here. >> There. Oh, >> chicken noodle soup. If you guys didn't know, room service is included. You can order as much as you want 24 hours a day. You can get chicken noodle soup at 3:00 in the morning, and that's usually what I do every night. But since we just came back from that uh glacier excursion, I've been wanting some soup. And look at that soup. Look at that. Plenty of noodles. I like to slurp the noodles. So delicious. Just hanging out here. Honestly, you can't ask for a better dining location than this. >> Feel like there's got to be bears out there. >> There's got to be some bears out there. I hope the bears don't want to get my soup. And with that, I think we are done here today. Honestly, I am exhausted. I had so much fun today. Might be one of my favorite cruise days ever. Everything from meeting Mickey in the morning, churo Mickey waffles, the glacier, the glacierita. I mean, it's gonna be hard to beat that. But tomorrow we are going to Skagway and we're going to go dogsledding and eat at a bunch of Alaskan restaurants. And I'm excited. It actually could beat it. I mean, I don't know. It's going to be hard, but who knows? I mean, we have so many adventures. So, I guess uh we'll see you in the morning for our uh next port adventure in uh Skagway. And good morning from Skagway. We have finally made it to port. And I'm excited to go out and explore a nice cozy town in Alaska. Look at this view, though. Honestly, the views just keep on getting better and better. Skagway is such a long day. I think we can disembark at 7:30 and then we have to be back on the ship at 8:00 p.m. So, you can basically spend the whole day in the town just, you know, like I said, trying some of the food, doing some shopping. They have some shows. They have a train ride, but we're going to, you know, do the dog sledding along with some other activities around. We might spend the whole entire day off the ship. Who knows? And then tonight we have Tritons for dinner. I've never had Tritons before. It's I think it's the same restaurant where Lumiere's was on the Magic. So, I'm kind of excited to try it. I guess we're gonna have to get ready. Well, I'm already ready. I think Sean and Kristen are getting ready now. And then uh get off the ship. And we have officially left the ship. There she is. Wow. You really can get close to the front. Or is that the back? >> That's the front. >> Oh, that is the front. Yeah. And they actually have the train right here as soon as you uh step off. But we're not doing the train today. We're actually uh like I said, going uh dog sledding. Oh, look, a nice little sign. Welcome to Skagway. That's really cool. Since we couldn't get breakfast on the ship, we decided to grab a bite to eat before we start our day here in Skagway. And there's this very popular uh like Alaskan fried bread. I think it's called Doughboy. So, that's going to be our first stop. And then we're going to meet up with our tour guide and get ready to go dogs. And it honestly looks like it's like Main Street USA right here. It kind of does, >> doesn't it? >> Feels like a movie set. >> Yeah. Like we're walking right down the center of Main Street, USA. I believe this town was very famous for gold. It was a gold rush town. And there's about 800 locals. More people are on the ship than people that live here. And that's kind of crazy. And I think they all work in the shops and the stores. I kind of want to move here. Let's look at the houses on Zillow. The coolest thing is everything is walking distance from the cruise ship. You can see the Wonder all the way down there. And you basically just hop off the ship and come take a stroll right down one street that has everything uh you can ask for. And I love it here. I'm already sold that I would want to move here. I looked up some houses on Zillow. Might be a little expensive and there's not a lot. And uh this is uh where the Klondike uh Doughboy is. This is the uh fried Alaskan bread that I was talking about. Everyone says it's very, very delicious. I think it's probably the most popular food item here. So, uh it's a good uh breakfast stop. Look at the size of this. Holy moly. Oh, it's so hot. It's so hot. It actually might fall apart. So, I don't want to hang it up too good, but it's definitely the size of my head. So, let's uh break on in. Break on in to the uh dough boy. Oh boy, it's honestly so soft and delicious. And you got to eat it like fresh. They pull it right out of the fryer. So, it's so hot and steamy. But I love it. Definitely worth the hype. And there's a pretty long line already. It just literally opened up. So, uh, everyone knows to come get a Klondike or come get a doughboy at Klondike. It's a little messy because of all the cinnamon sugar, but uh I mean I eat beignetes all the time. It's the same exact thing. At least this one you can't see on a black shirt because it's cinnamon sugar and not powdered sugar. But I would definitely come back and get this. Now that we got something to eat, I wanted to show you some of the cool museums. One thing I noticed about Skagway is they have a lot of saloons and old brothel cuz of the gold rush uh happening back in 1898. I think that was the year. Yeah. 1898. Here is a look at a little museum of what a saloon used to look like. Look at this guy pouring uh root beers in the back there. Looks like somebody left in a hurry. Got some food on there. He looks like a proper gent. This is what it would look like. People would come in here. They would gamble. They would drink. Oh wow. They even had roulette in here. And look at this guy over here. A mascot customer in 1910. His name is not known, but I think he uh had a hard day's work in the gold mines there. Looks like he's relaxing a little bit. All right, time to get ready for our dogsledding excursion. And I am so excited. They'll pick you up and then take you to the destination. And the only thing I have to say is like if you go on an excursion not through Disney, the ship won't wait for you if uh you don't make it back in time. But we have plenty of time. my uh travel agent actually, you know, told me all the, you know, schematics for it. And if you ever need help planning an Alaskan cruise, like I said, I'll put a link for the uh travel agency in the uh description so uh you can uh see exactly or book what I do in this video. To get to the dog sled excursion, you got to take a van for about a 35minute drive. Dog sledding has so much history here in Alaska. For generations, dogs help bring food and resources to remote communities that were very hard to get to, just like horses and camels. Uh, in fact, dogs and humans have like the longest working history together. We're going to be going up into the mountains and we're going to actually go dog sledding with some of the dogs, but we're not going to be in any snow cuz there's no snow. So, we're actually going to be pulled, I think, on like a cart that has wheels. And this is a training camp for the dogs. And it's like kind of special the way like a musher and their dog kind of eat, sleep, and do everything together. It's a really strong relationship and kind of the birth of man's best friend. So, you know how me and Gracie are. I think I'm going to absolutely love this. And we also get to hold the puppies, like the little baby puppies. Oh my lord. Oh boy. Oh yeah. I'm sorry. I got to go. I'm sure you guys want to get in here. Thank you. >> I love you guys. You're so dope. >> All right, we're almost ready to go. The dogs are excited. >> Let's go. Oh my god. >> So, in the back we have Mustang and Sunshine. They are 40-year-old married couple. Kind of bigger all the time, but they make it work. >> Wow. They just stop barking. >> Yeah. And thank you for pointing that out because now that we can hear each other, welcome to Alaska X. My name is Luke. I am your muffler today. Reads in them. This is amazing. >> Wow. They literally pull us like nothing. >> Yeah. So, uh, actually my job back here is to hold on the brakes and make sure they only do 8 to 10 miles an hour. They'd much rather be pulling us 20 to 25. >> Oh, now it's break time. >> Here we go. Break's over. >> Misty, look ahead. >> Hey, Misty. >> Good girl. >> I can't stop laughing. Oh my lord. Oh my gosh. Just went down about it. No, it's awesome. I love it. >> Oh no, they get mad at me for slowing them down. >> We're slowing them down. >> We're going left. >> And I heard we're going to go faster. That means left. >> Oh my lord. Mama Misty Hop. >> Wow. >> Wow, >> that was hot. >> Hi, Sunshine and Mustang. How are you? >> This is and Eddie. >> Hi, Scandit and Eddie. Thank you. >> Your snowmobiles. >> Thank you so much for the ride. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Here we have Puma and Summit. >> Hi, Puma. Hi, Summit. Hi. Hi. Yes. Hi. >> Oh, there's Clouse. >> Hi, Claus. Hi. Yes. >> Wow. What's their names here? >> And this is Riot and Polaris. >> Hi, Riot. Hi, Polaris. Hi. >> Hi. >> Are going to be this small. The big ones are going to stay this big. Uh, most of the time your Alaskan husky is going to be about the size of Riot here. Uh, these tiny guys have a lot of pointer in their blood, which is why they so cute. >> But here we have Tundra and China. >> Hi, Tundra. >> Hi, China. Oh my lord, >> he loves. >> Here is Phantom. This is the brother of both Scandic and Eddie in the back. >> Hi, Phantom. Hi. >> And then someone who's kind of getting used to the whole petting thing. This is Parker. You can kind of see a little Just checking everyone out. >> No worries. You be you. >> Oh, he if you want to pet him, go for it. >> Well, Parker, I want you to know petting is wonderful. >> No, itch your ear for you. Oh, I'll come back to you, too. >> Like, Sean, >> and this is Misty and Mamba, the most affectionate dogs on. >> No way. A >> They ran right off. If they could, they would go home with you in their pockets. >> I would take you home if I could. Yes, I would. Oh. Yes. >> A little bit of greasy out here. >> Thank you guys. Thank you. I love you. I love you. >> The dog sledding was so incredible. And it's crazy to think we were slowing them down. Like the dogs are just ready to go. And it's it's such an amazing experience. And they're so lovely. Every single dog has their own personality, their own name, and their own pack that they're in. And I just absolutely I'm in love with this. This was such a great experience. Before we head back down to camp, we're going to take 5 minutes to come to Eagle's Nest Overlook. This is supposed to be one of the best places to get a scenic view. Oh, it looks amazing. Holy moly. Wow. I really didn't think there could be a better day than yesterday with the glacier viewing, but this is literally topping my list. Breathtaking. And the air just smells better. Wow. Oh boy. >> Wow. You can literally see the cruise ships from here. That is crazy. >> Now we're going to head back down to camp and uh get to meet the puppies. Time to meet the puppies. Look at the puppies. Oh my lord. Hi. Oh, I'll pet you all day. Don't you worry. >> Nate, what do you got there? >> This is my baby. >> What's its name? >> Oh, well, it's not mine to name, but if I was, I would probably go with uh >> Gracie. Weird. >> I'm so >> Yo, why are you crying? >> He's crying. >> Wow. This might be the best excursion they ever went on. >> I'm all good. Thank you so much. >> Look at them. Look at them with the eyes open. Yes, they are. >> This is Nate's dream day >> in Alaska. This is a I didn't think the last excursion could be topped, but I think it did. >> Welcome to the school of dog warts, Gracie girl. I think she's like Gryffindor. Oh. Oh my lord. I can't even look at him. >> I'm gonna turn you around. Okay, here we go. >> All right, we have Sean's shirt here. I'm telling you, my shirt has nothing on it. And then you go back to Nate. He is absolutely covered head to toe in dog hair. >> I'm gonna move to Alaska and become a musher. >> Well, now we made it back to downtown Skagway. And I think we'll get some more food. I worked up an appetite doing all that dog sledding. And one thing that's very special around here that I like to try is reindeer sausage. I've never had a reindeer sausage, but the bread looks phenomenal. And it comes usually with mustard and onions. I got just onions on it. I'm not too sure I need any mustard. I'm excited. Having a little reindeer dog. >> I love the theme theming. Definitely some Route 66 vibes. >> Yeah, it's very cozy over here. And they got a nice little seating area. Kristen's got a reindeer dog. We're going to eat them together. >> Well, Nate, we both have our reindeer gizzies. So, cheers. >> Cheers to reindeer sausage. Oh, it's sweet. >> Wow. Oh, >> not too bad. >> Interesting. >> Enough of the reindeer sausage business. It definitely was a unique snack. Had a lot of snap to it, but I'm still a little hungry. So, we made our way back downtown and I think we're going to stop into the uh what is it called? The red uh red onion saloon. Red onion saloon. Look at this. Look with the sun actually out right now. Holy moly. I don't even feel like this is Alaska. This doesn't feel like Alaska. >> Well, it's what's crazy is this is like the United States of America. >> Yeah, >> that's crazy to me. It doesn't even feel real. It doesn't. >> It doesn't. And look at here's the Red Onion Saloon. You ready to head in? >> Oh, I actually am. >> Kristen somehow convinced me to try a reindeer shot. Looks like it's >> Kula ice cream and peppermint snobs. >> It's not just a reindeer shot. It's a reindeer fart shot. >> Oh, reindeer fart shot. Oh, okay. All right. Well, I guess we're going to do it, >> guys. Reindeer fart shot. >> Reindeer fart shot. >> Oh, it does taste tastes like Christmas in your mouth. I don't even think we get anything to eat. I think we're just getting the shots and then we're done. >> They do brothel tours in here. 20inut tours for $20. And you can see some of the uh impressive artwork up there. This is a really nice uh saloon. And I feel like these paintings kind of remind me of Jack in the Titanic. Paint me like one of your French girls, would you, Sean? >> Uh maybe with my eyes closed. >> The Red Onion Saloon was fun, but we still need to eat a little bit more. I didn't get full on that reindeer sausage. So, I think we're going to make our way to what's it called? The crab house. >> The fish house or fish company or >> fish company. The Alaskan fish company for some crab legs. Crab legs. Crabt tree. Woo. Right over yonder is the Disney Wonder. And when we first walked over here, we thought this big line was for uh the crab legs, but it's actually to get in that cruise ship. Here's the crab legs area. I don't think I've ever had Alaskan king crab before, but I saw a couple of them come out and they're gigantic. And then I looked on the menu and it's $189. So, I think I'm going to have to try it. I got to give it a go. Went in Skagway. Skagway Fish Company. And right there it is. The Alaskan King Crab Cluster. $189. Weighing in at around2 lb. These clusters go fast. You can also get uh the two-piece king crab plate for 145. A lot of this seafood is very expensive, but I'm assuming it's all fresh. And you know, we're on vacation. Oh my lord, look at the size of these Alaskan king crab legs. Me and Kristen both decided on trying them. $189. Well worth it, though. I mean, this is huge. I'm going to try to lift it up to give you an idea on how big these crab legs actually are. They asked me if I wanted help to actually eat it cuz I don't know what I'm doing and Kristen walked away. So, I'm just going to try to figure it out. Just going to take a leg out. Oh, wow. I kind of just went all in for it. Oh, and I spoke my butter. No, I don't know what I'm doing. Am I doing this wrong? Oh, that's a little sharp. May I? >> Sure. >> Okay. May I see your red tool in there? >> Oh, you need the red tool. >> Yes. Now, go backwards. Press down and it will open it up just like a can opener. >> Wow. You did that so gracefully. >> They give me a little practice. >> Yeah. >> Look at that little biteful. >> It is definitely very hard to get apart. I don't know what I'm doing at all. I'm just kind of snapping, breaking, and then pulling and shredding. But I did get to taste the meat. And it is very, very sweet, very tender and delicious, just like my love. And it kind of looks like it. What? It kind of reminds me of an alien. Like Sean said, it's like I got a big old leg right here. It was a cool experience eating Alaskan crab legs in Alaska for the first time, but I definitely have to find out a better way of eating crab because that was very difficult. It hurt my hands a lot. The meat was delicious. Like, it was so good, but I feel like I was missing everything. I was scavenging to try to get there. So, I'm going to try to do some tutorials and learn. The waitress though, she was so fantastic. She was a pro at it. She was just like boom. But I don't follow directions. Well, I mean, she could have showed me probably 10 more times and I still wouldn't have get it, but it's still it was all about the experience. And I'm glad that I got to try it. And now we have plenty of time to just hang out and relax uh before we have to get back on the ship. Or we might just go back. We'll see how it goes. I can't believe how quiet the town has gotten. And we have a couple of hours, I think two more hours, but we decided to just start making our way back on the ship. Look at how beautiful this is one last time. I love coming here. And the street that we are on, like the downtown is right there. And you can see the uh Disney Wonder is uh parked right here. Literally, it's so close. And look at these mountains over here, too. This is so just breathtaking. I'm literally shook. I really am going to remember this forever. Now we have made it back on the ship. And boy, I got to say today might have been one of the best days of my life. I mean, everything from the dog sledding to just exploring the town and trying all of the food. It was just unbelievable. And the views, it's just so cozy here. I would definitely move here if I could, but I I'd be too far away, you know? It'd be in the middle of nowhere. I got to be near some of my favorite places. And I'm excited for tomorrow because like we're only halfway done. We have so many more adventures to do today or not today, this trip. Today we don't have anything else to do except for go eat at uh Triton's which I'll take you guys and show you. I've never eat at this restaurant. So uh we'll uh check it out and get a little bite to eat before calling it a night. And here is Triton's right in the Grand Hall. Look at this in here. It looks very nice. >> Wow. Wow, I like the blue setting. This is very pretty. Wow. Table 7. It's definitely a lot nicer in here than Lumiere's, I think. I think it's because of the blue. Like, I just like the blue. It's very nice. And the uh menu looks pretty good. You got some pasta, some salmon, some breast of chicken, some lamb, and uh carved roast beef tenderloin. Oh, yeah. Just a little dabbing. Oh, that's good. Thank you. What is that? Gravy. >> Peppercorn. >> Peppercorn. Oh, well, the steak has arrived along with the chicken. They both look fantastic. I like how the mashed potatoes are like a little rectangle and the green beans are like hay stacks wrapped in bacon. I had this at um Lumiere's and it was very, very delicious. I remember because I like the way the bacon was wrapped around the green beans. So, cheers. Oh yeah. And now for the Grand Maret sule. >> That looks very fancy. Thanks for the assist. >> Thank you. It looks nice and creamy. Ooh, that's very strong. Goofy's walking around in his lumberjack outfit. They're just blasting music. I love it. Dinner at Triton's was amazing. I really love the steak and the Grand Maret sule was unbelievable. In fact, we got two. We got two Anna. I think a vanilla Marne >> creme brulee. >> Oh, a van a vanilla creme brulee. So, we got two little one. Kristen's laughing at me butchering all of these words, but it was very delicious. And the the steak was the shot tone low and that was great. And I loved it all. So now I think it's time to go to bed. My dogs are barking. Literally, they were their dog. My dogs are barking from a good dog day. So I guess we'll see you in the morning for Icy Straight Point and uh some bears and whales. Bears and whales. And good morning from Icy Straight Point. I'm excited to go out on a little whale and bear excursion and try some of the food. It looks beautiful here. Very uh very green hills. I feel like we've been very blessed with this weather except for our first day at sea where it rained all day. Yesterday it was like dream weather in Skagway. And even this morning, it's a little bit chilly, but the sun is out. The skies are clear. This has been amazing. And I'm excited cuz we still have another port. We have Ketchacan tomorrow. This is such an adventure. That's one one thing I can describe an Alaskan cruise. It's an adventure. We are about to go out on a whale excursion, but who needs it when it's right outside the boat? Wow. Oh my lord. I cannot even believe this right now. That is just incredible. That's I guess the way to start a whale excursion. We didn't even get off the ship yet. Oh, as soon as we get off the ship, they actually have I think our whale watching boat right over here. We don't have to go far at all. Here's the boat itself. Looks like a nice decent size and it has restrooms. Once the boat stops, you can get up and walk around. They even have a second floor where you get a good view. And there's an eagle in a tree. >> Oh, I see an orca. >> Different types of orcas. So, this is a transient plot of orcas. Looks like they're getting a little right there. They just said that there's a group of uh or a pot of hunchbacks. >> Yeah. At least five or six. Now we're heading back to the ship. And there she is, the Disney Wonder. >> The whale watching portion of our excursion is done. We come back to the ship and then we go uh I think on foot or maybe on a bus to go to the bear one. It was pretty cool. I just wish that we got a little closer to the whales. I feel like I actually got a better whale viewing from the cruise ship itself. Oh wow, this looks really pretty up here. We got a statue of an orca over there. I see a fireplace. The ship is uh back yonder. We got such another beautiful day. I have gloves on and I'm wearing a hoodie and it feels like summer in Florida right now. The sun is beating down. I'm honestly sweating and I really never expected this in Alaska. And now that we made it over, we're just waiting for our guide to pick us up to take us out on the bear excursion. But I want to show you they have like a gondola here and a bunch of restaurants. And I hope we can ride it later. They have a gondola that they use as transportation to get uh to the other side. Look at this. Takes you up right through those trees there. Wow. We're going to probably try to do that after our bear excursion. But they also have nice little cozy spots where they have fire. This is like really really nice here. They have a smokehouse restaurant over here, a duck point bar. And you can see the ship in the background there. This is so cozy. And also they have an awesome zip liner over there that looks really cool. And I think it's like a very long zip liner. I heard a couple people talking about it. For the bear excursion, we take about about 30 minute uh bus ride to uh another part or another town and they have like kind of boardwalk platforms overlooking uh the rivers and the streams. Hopefully we can catch a bear snatching up a salmon. Um we are on Chichoff Island today. Chichoff is the third largest island in Alaska. It's over 2,000 square miles. A gigantic piece of land. It's mostly wilder. Only four little towns here. Only 1,200 human beings inhabit this giant island. Uh we share the island with around 3,000 coastal brown bears. We're miles away from civilization and we're uh heading out on a nature hike about a mile deep. And we just saw a bear, so we have to keep our voices down, but we have guides. It's going to be fun. This area has one of the highest concentration of brown bears. In fact, they outnumber the uh humans on the island. Two to one. Two to one. That's insane. So, for every one human, there's two brown brown bears. Oh my lord. It literally landed right next to us. Holy moly. This is insane. there right now. There's another bear. She's right here. That bear excursion was incredible and honestly a little scary. It was so cool just getting away from like, you know, the port area and going deep deep deep deep in the wilderness and getting to see the nature, the bears, eating salmon. Like that was I I mean I don't even words cannot explain how amazing this whole entire cruise has been. It's been like just like a I I I feel like it's not real life. And I can't wait to actually watch this video back. I mean, and we're not even done with today. We actually uh going to grab something to eat and then uh go on the uh gondola. I want to take a scenic view. Here it is. The crab house. Looks like it's right on the water, too. Oh, this is cozy. Wow, I can smell the crab already. I decided on trying something other than crab since we had our first Alaskan crab or king crab yesterday. So, I ended up getting the reindeer chili and the jumbolaya. And I don't know if there's reindeer in the jumbolaya. It looks like there's chicken, but I want to start there. Oh, it looks pretty good. M. Oh, very good. >> This is very delicious. >> I don't think Alaska is actually like known for their jumbolaya, but it's nice that they have a nonseafood option on the menu, and it's pretty tasty. It's not too spicy. Now, I want to try the reindeer chili. We had reindeer yesterday, but in gizzy form. So, uh it's going to be cool to try it a different way. Look at that. Looks like some good chili. M. It is good chili. Enough of the jumbolaya business. It's time to go ride the gondola. And this one is actually the small one that they use for transportation to get around the island. We're going to go on the red one that takes you up the island. And here's a little map uh showing you what I'm talking about. If you look uh we are right here. Yeah, we are right here. And we take this gondola here. And then we take the Sky Peak Gondelola all the way up to the mountain top and they have like another little port over there kind of area. So, it's a pretty cool uh cool ride. I believe the green one is free, but the red one costs money unless you get the wristband, which we got it either for being on the Disney Wonder or being on our adventure today. I'll find out later and let you know. Oh, these ones don't have any characters on them, though. Wee! You are now passing by Caribbean Beach Resort. They have a really cool obstacle course in the middle of the jungle here. Wow, this is so beautiful, though. And this is free. This uh doesn't cost anything. It's the red one. That's the one that cost a little bit. >> We're heading up. >> All right, we used the green gondola to get where we needed to go. Now it's time to board the red one. And wow, this is steep. It costs $55 for adults and $45 for children. But wait till I show you how steep this actually is. And once again, look at the weather route. Are we in Florida or Alaska? >> Sunshine here. >> I know. >> Tell them that our ship covers it, so it's free for >> Yeah, it's free. Yep. >> That's awesome. >> Exclusive for the Disney Wonder. Look how far this goes up. And it's so steep. I'm so excited actually. >> Wow. It got so quiet. This is so amazing. I'm shook at how steep this actual hill is. I've never been on a gondola like this. >> This is like straight up. We're like going straight up. I know. >> They should They should definitely get one of these at Disney. >> I feel like we need like some kind of wilderness music in here. >> Oh yeah, >> I know. Don't tell Sean twice. >> Do you have anything SOS? >> Oh, I got some. >> You couldn't have picked a better song. Angels in the outfield. When the Angels win the penny, kid. Oh my lord. Wow. On our way to Hollywood Studios. >> But look up now. Like we're Oh my god. >> What? Look, we might be able to see some whales. >> There's our cruise ship bat. >> So tiny, guys. >> We're almost to the top. >> Popping. My ears are popping. >> We're almost to the top. This is so This is crazy. Honestly, wow. That was such a cool gondola ride. Honestly, that's my new favorite Skyliner. And now that we're all the way up here, we get a view. Look at this. Holy moly. I love how we can still see the snow caps on the mountains. Wow. >> Now imagine some whales just floating on by. >> Honestly, with our luck, that's literally what would happen. >> For real. >> This has been incredible. >> I feel like the mountain is moving. >> The first gondola was about a 5minute ride and then this red one was about 10 minutes. And once you get to the top, they have icy straight brewing so you can grab a nice cold beer. Got a beautiful fire globe. And we get to sit here and just watch the gondilas go up and down. Maximum coziness here. Cheers to the Disney wonder. Now it's time to head back down. Heading down the mountain. Nervous. >> Wow. Here we go. >> I'm turning back down. >> This the only way to get down. >> I I'll just hike down. >> Seriously, what would happen if this thing broke and you were stuck up here? They have to have some like sport utility vehicle >> alternative. >> Yeah. That's going to come and rescue us. >> Two legs. Yeah. Helicopter. >> Wow. There's a ship. That's a glorious shot of a ship, honestly. >> Wow. >> Oh my god. We're about to go straight down. >> We literally stopped at the highest point. Now we're starting to roll again. gravity. >> The cruise ship looks like a little tiny like model cru. It looks like a toy cruise ship. >> That's a holy. I didn't think the cruise could see more beautiful. >> This gondola ride was a great way to end our day here at Icy Point Straight. Now it's time to get back to the ship and uh I guess get ready for dinner or take a nap. Oh, we're coming in hot. We just got back on the ship and look at how many people are enjoying the pool for dinner tonight. We have Animator's Pallet and I love this restaurant on the Magic. We're doing a different type where it's not the show with Sorcerer Mickey. I think you actually draw and they like projected on the screens. Sean and Kristen were telling me about it. So, I'm kind of excited. But I'm also excited for this sunset this evening. I mean, we had such an amazing day at Icy Straight Point and I loved, you know, seeing the bears eat salmon and taking the gondola. I mean, I loved it so much. I hope I started saying it right. I was calling it all different names, but uh to end the day with the beautiful sunset and a nice little dinner at Animator's Pallet, that sounds very nice. Like seriously, everyone would just think cold weather, you know? Alaska. But look at this sunset peeking over the mountains right now, right from our balcony. Isn't this just so amazing? Honestly, I know I'm going to say this a couple of times. We got so lucky with this weather. Ice cream and a sunset before dinner. I love just walking into animator's pallet. It just looks so pretty in here. It's like we're stepping into a black and white cartoon. This is really cool. It's like we draw our own character and just like uh Kristen and Sean said, they project it up on the uh screens. Look at this. And then I assume it's just going to pop up there somewhere. It's going to do a little dance for you. >> I'm glad we don't have to draw and it's just coloring cuz I really >> You do have to draw. >> Oh. Oh jeez. Oh boy. This is going to be interesting. I really don't know how to draw, but I tried drawing myself the best I could. My mom probably would love it. I tried to put a little Roosevelt shirt on there. And then I forgot that I wear glasses. And I also realized I don't have eyebrows, so I didn't put those in either. But everything else looks pretty accurate, I think. You guys let me know what you think. Did I come in kind of close? I mean, we're both bald. Kristen, you drew yourself. >> I feel like you and I went for the same vibe and then Sean kind of just took over the >> I think Sean has a uh hidden talent. >> I was feeling the animation spirit, so I drew not myself, but Michael Eisner. >> Michael Eisner. >> Ridiculously spot on. I didn't know you could draw. >> It's the best I could do with a mark. >> Someone needs to mail that to him. >> Oh. Wow. Now that's what I call a colorful entrance. Oh, hi folks. A gosh. Thanks for all the great drawings. These are just what I need to whip up a little animation magic. I'll be back later, but right now we invite you to sit back and relax as the dining room proudly presents >> your dinner. We ask the dishes. >> I almost forgot to show you guys my food before I ate it. I got the chicken snitle and I got the pasta. And this pasta is like a really unique color. It's like purple black. >> Might be squitting pasta. >> Is it really? I I thought it was linguini. I'll be honest, I've never had pasta like this before. I'm kind of excited. >> It's really good. >> I don't like it. >> Meanwhile, I was just saying how good it was. >> There's something taste. I don't know. Oh my lord. >> Oh wow. >> Oh my god. And when you're done with your meal, they give you your art back and they stamp it certified Disney animation. I'm just so You did such a great job. >> This I hopefully I'm the first one to draw Mike Lisman. I I honestly think you might. But with that, I think we are going to call it a night. Tomorrow, we're going to catch a can and we have the great lumberjack show. I think it is. We're going to do some axe throwing and try some salmon cuz it's the salmon capital of the world. So, I guess uh we'll see you in the morning. See you in the morning. And good morning from bright and sunny Ketchacan. Look at how gorgeous this is. Honestly, we are blessed again with amazing weather. They actually said the highs are going to be in the 70s. 70°ree weather in Ketchacan and the sun is out, no clouds in the sky, and I'm excited to go explore. I'm happy I get to wear my Ketchacan hat today. I got this hat just for this trip. And we don't have any big excursions planned for today, just the great Alaskan uh lumberjack festival. And then I think we're going to do some axe throwing, too. So, that's going to be fun. Other than that, we're going to just explore around, catch a can, check out all the food spots, and hopefully see some wildlife, and take it all in. This is our last port in Alaska before we have another day at sea. So, I kind of want to I don't want to leave. I don't want to leave. We're getting off the ship. Look at Ketchacan. This is such a cute little town. And this is probably the most civilization we've seen in a week. Holy moly. And it's so close to the ship. Wow. You literally just come right off and walk across and you're in town. Kristen has a lot of spots for us to get food. And I think we're going to go straight to the uh lumberjack show. As soon as we uh get in town, it's uh time for the show and then it's time to eat. The Fish House is right next door to the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. I kept on calling it a festival earlier. It's Well, I guess it is a festival. >> You know, axes and wood. >> Axes and wood. Wow. We just saw some salmon. This is the salmon capital of the world. So, I'm going to be eating that later. It looks like there's no recording during the show, but they're doing a little pre-show now. Some axe throwing. Look at this guy. He's lining up. He was built by >> Oh, he psyched us all out. But this looks so interesting. I'm kind of excited. We just got done with the Great Alaskan lumberjack show. And I think we actually booked the non-D Disney exclusive one because Goofy never came out. They do offer a Disney exclusive one where Goofy comes out. This one probably had more action and they probably make the one with Disney a little bit more kid-friendly because they were using some like louder I guess chainsaws in there. I'm not too sure the difference. But I mean it's like your typical tourist show, you know, like it's something I think I would see on 192 in CM. You know what I mean? everybody here and catch a can. This is the historic creek street and this is a nice little uh boardwalk that goes along the creek where you'll see some salmon hopping out there and it's got a bunch of different shops and local boutiques. It's really fancy. It's really colorful and very picturesic. I think that's a word. Over here you got Dolly's house where both men and salmon came upstairs to spawn historic red light tour. And then you got the uh Perfect Partners, Alaskan Gold, Australian Oracle. See, bunch of nice little shops. Oh, wow. You can see a bunch of salmon in there. Holy moly, they're really hopping around. This is so cozy. Creek Street's loaded with different shops, stores, and food spots. And I just like the color of the buildings. One side of Creek Street, you have fresh salmon swimming away. And then they on the other side you have a bunch of salmon carcasses. I think a bear might have come through here and just plucked them all up. Like look at that. That kind of looks like a fresh salmon that lay in there, doesn't it? >> Kind of does. But then look at that one. You could just see the bones. >> That's wild. >> The whole like spine and everything. >> I thought it smelt a little fishy here. >> Weird. I think we're going to grab something to eat from the Alaska Fish House. They got crab legs, seafood, fish, and chips. I don't know. I want to have some salmon. I would love to catch my own salmon, but most of the salmon that's in the creek there look way way too dark. And I don't see anybody uh pulling anything in. Doesn't look like they're biting at all. Look at this little guy swimming right here. There's a whole big salmon literally right there. >> Yeah, I'm going to eat it. There was not. I thought I saw some. >> Sean got fish tacos. >> I'm excited. This is the most anticipated meal of the whole trip for me. >> Yeah. >> 37. >> 37 right here. Yeah. Yeah. >> Enjoy. Oh, that looks really good. >> They look mad. >> Yes. Look at that. Fish and chips. I think I'm going to try the halibit first because I had uh fish and chips in Skagway and it was literally the best fish and chips I've ever had in my life. And these ones look like they're Panko uh Panko brought it. So, uh let's break on in. Oh, wow. That is definitely some steamy fish. Cheers. Definitely not as good as the ones in Skagway, but I still want to try each of the fish. And I think this one might be salmon. We'll find out when I break on in. Oh, yes. This one's definitely the salmon. I am definitely not a big salmon person, but this is uh the salmon capital of the world, like I said. So, went and catch a can. I'm definitely still not a salmon guy. They're probably delicious, but it's just my preference. The fries though, they have a little barbecue seasoning on it. I kind of like that though. For the most part, we're taking it real easy here at Ketchacan. We've already done a lot of like adventurous excursions the past couple of nights. Today, like I said, I just want to walk around, check out the town, get some of the food. I'll show you some of the touristy spots like Creek Street, and also, of course, get some salmon cuz it's the salmon capital of the world. But a nice relaxing day and catch a can. Sounds nice. Now that we got some fish and chips, I want to go around and explore the town. We already checked out Creek Street, but uh this area over here is like literally downtown. They even have a hotel up on the mountain there, a crosswalk, and if you're missing the Caribbean while you're on a cruise, they always got some Caribbean gems for you. This is so cool, though. I love walking around the streets. This is definitely the most civilization we've seen. I definitely brought all the wrong clothing for this cruise, though. I thought it was going to be cold. I'm wearing a flannel and I'm sweating bullets. Sweating bullets in Kitchen Can. A nice little burger joint called Burger Queen. Established in 1980 and it actually started as a food truck. Burger Queen right here. Isn't that kind of crazy? And then it got so busy that uh it ended up being its own location. So I want to try the burgers and they smell delicious. Char grilled. Char grilled is the way to go. I thought I was going to be eating nothing but seafood here in Alaska. But when I walked past that restaurant, I smelt that char grilled and I knew I had to come get it. Look how beautiful that is. I like my burgers charred like that. Who doesn't love a charred burger? So, cheers. And nothing on me. >> All right, >> you guys ready for fart shot round two? >> Why are we doing fart shots? >> Ducks. Cheers. >> I need my burger to wash that down. >> It's not great, but it's not bad. >> Look at this. A house above a tunnel. And we're actually heading up this way cuz I think we're going to get some donuts. Jellyfish Donuts is another spot I wanted to stop and try. And I got myself a original glaze. Look at that. Glazed Donuts in Alaska. >> That looks like a very glazed donut. That looks delicious. Looks like cupcake. >> Yeah. Isn't this whole entire town just so cool? This donut is thick and it's leaking glaze everywhere. So, we're diving on in. It's hot, too. Oh, we had donuts, burgers, fish, and now it's time to start making our way back probably to the main port area. That was the uh tunnel we walked through before underneath that grassy null there. I just love how all the homes are up on the hills with amazing views. It is really beautiful almost everywhere in Alaska. But after visiting all of our ports, I do have to say I think Skagway was my favorite. Skagway, Icy Point, just for the nature aspect and then uh catch a can. Glacier uh glacier viewing. I don't think that's a port. I think that's just a an adventure before we get on the ship. We're out here just taking good photos. >> Photo shoot with the back side or the front? Is that the front? >> That's the back. >> That's the back. That's the wonder butt. It literally is just so gorgeous out. I never thought I'd have weather like this in Alaska. We made it back on this ship and I think we're going to go get our ice cream. Look at how beautiful this is. The pool's closed still, though. >> I might do I might do a pool day tomorrow. It's our day at sea and our last day on the cruise. Want to hang out in the hot tub as much as I can. And now we are leaving Ketcha Can. Look at how beautiful this sunset is. I feel like I've said that every single day. Every single sunset has been spectacular. And now I guess some cheese plates. >> It's tradition. >> Cheese plates. >> I can't wait for >> maybe a bottly uh a bubbly bless. >> Bottle of bubbly bless. >> We have Tiana's again for our rotational dining. But I don't know if I'll show you or even if I go eat. We already had a lot of food at Ketcha Can. I might just go to bed early so I can wake up tomorrow and enjoy our day at sea. I'll try to show you basically all of the stuff around the ship since we're going to be on it all day. We had one day at sea in the beginning, but like I said, it rained all day, so it wasn't the best to show you. So, this is my chance to give you a tour of the ship. So, I guess uh we'll see you in the morning for our final day. Our final day. I'm actually really sad about it, but we'll be back soon. I I definitely think I'm going to be an Alaskan cruiser now. And good morning from our last day on the ship. A whole day at sea. The mountains are gone. The weather is starting to look a little bit brighter. Actually, actually looks darker than Alaska. It's kind of funny how we were blessed with such beautiful weather and now we're drifting back to uh Vancouver and it's starting to get a little hazy. Honestly, today I just want to relax and kind of uh let everything sink in. We had an incredible cruise. We got to do so many amazing adventures and I'm sad to leave the ship. We're not even like leaving. We have a full day at sea and dinner tonight. But I just woke up like completely sad today. So, I probably won't show you much. I definitely want to show you dinner because it's lobster night and we'll see how many lobsters I can actually eat. and maybe we'll uh browse around the stores and just give you a rundown of the ship. I want to stop into the gift shop and see some of the exclusive Alaska merchandise. Look at this nice Alaska spirit jersey. Oh, how you doing, guys? >> Good. How are you? >> Alaska tumbler right here. Some pins. >> I like this ornament a lot. >> Oh, that ornament is nice. I like what you're wearing, Kristen. That is nice. >> I'm all Alaska. >> I know you're already done. Somebody went shopping already. >> Oh, I did. I did. >> They actually have a lot of Alaska exclusive like merchandise. They even have little Mickey plushes that uh are the same way we dressed up. >> Sean's pointing out this uh nice little long sleeve shirt. >> Nice Alaska school. >> Oh, I thought that was the front, but it was actually the back. >> Nice little uh pocket uh design here. >> Yeah. It's also good to point out that they have what are these? Hana. What are they? Hel I don't even know the brand for >> you know these Oh heli heli Hassan these are like Hansen >> Hansen >> oh Hansen Hans these are really good especially uh for the cold weather here hassan >> they sell these in Norway >> I know they do they sell them in Epcot so it's cool that they have them on the ship and here's the Mickey plushes I was talking about they also have Minnie over here which is kind of cool after doing some shopping and eating a little lunch I think it's time to just kick back, relax before dinner and uh pack up. Gotta pack up. I always like to pack my bags the night before cuz in the morning I don't want to wake up and just be running around. So have everything nice and packed and then it's off to dinner. Off to Tritons for uh all you can eat lobster. And I guess it's time for our last dinner on the cruise. Good old Tritons. You can see Mickey up there doing photos. Got to grab our nice little sanitizer wipe. Hey yo. Hey. I love that they give you face wipes before you get in here. You did that so easily. Try. >> Thank you. >> And we got another one. We're double lobstering it up. Double lobster on a Thursday afternoon. >> Lobster on a Disney cruise. I've never stayed long enough to get this. Wow. Yeah, we need as much lobster as possible. Got to get all that lemon sauce. Oh, I like it. Lemony. >> Pretty fresh. >> Look at that. That is a big lobster. >> This is my third lobster tail and I absolutely love it. I think this lobster was way more than what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be like, you know, crappy lobsters, but this is beefy. Beefy beefy lobster. Normally, I eat lobster in small bites cuz I want to savor it all, but I've been taking big bites tonight. Well, now that we finished our lobster dinner, I wanted to come over to the after hours area, show you some of the lounges, cuz honestly, we didn't spend a lot of time in here. It's different in Alaska when you're going out and doing port adventures and just seeing all the beauty and the nature. So, like we didn't spend any time back here. They got the Cadillac lounge. >> Look at this GM partnership here. Huh. >> Wow. >> I love Cadillacs, too. >> Is that really the price of gas? >> I wish. >> Can you imagine if they actually showed the gas wherever we were sailing to? Look at this in here. That >> be such a random detail. >> Oh, wow. It's so pretty. It kind of reminds me of a 1950s diner. And just like that, we are back home in Florida. And I had an amazing cruise. Dare I say the best cruise I've ever been on. We went to the Cadillac Lounge and we started talking about some of our favorite moments of the trip. And we just got so like invested in the conversation, I didn't even record an outro. And then we woke up super early in the morning. It was like 56 a.m. and we were able to disembark the ship at 7:30 and were able to catch a flight at 10:00 a.m. to be back here in Florida. So, I figured I'd close out the video and uh give you kind of a whole recap of my cruise and talk about some of my favorite moments. And I think uh between all of the ports that we went to, uh uh it's got to be Skagway is my favorite stop. I mean, I loved Glacier Viewing, but I don't think that's a port. So, I want to stick with just Skagway only because I was so blown away by how amazing the town just looked like. It was straight out of like a book. Like, honestly, it felt unreal. almost like on a like movie set, but it was real and there were real people that lived there. And we even got to go to the grocery store and kind of uh look at some of the expensive things. In fact, I think I bought a lent roller for $10 cuz I had to get all the dog hair off of me. And by the way, speaking of the dog uh excursion, wow, that was such an emotional moment for me. I'm going to be honest, I even cried. I was so happy just playing with the puppies and they all were just so sleepy. They literally were just laying right in your arms and I just want to relive that moment. And then the dog sledding itself. It's crazy just seeing the connection between a musher and their dogs. Like those dogs literally are like family and they play and they all have their own personality and uh they are, you know, good at what they do. Uh we were slowing them down. they want to go like 25 miles an hour and the mushy on their backs saying that he's just basically holding the brake like oh ho ho and uh it was such a great experience. Definitely highly recommend that excursion. And speaking of excursions, like I said, if anything you've seen in this video looks like something you want to do and you want to uh plan a vacation, use the same uh travel agency that I used uh Be Our Guest Vacations. I uh put a link in the description where uh you can uh maybe get a quote from them or just touch base, but uh they really helped me kind of pick out all these excursions. And I'm so glad we did the mushers one and then the icy straight point uh doing the whale watching bear uh combo. I I have to say I was a little underwhelmed with the whale watching only because I feel like we got a better view of the whales from the ship. Like literally, you could stand on the ship and get a way better closer look of all all the groups of whales. And uh it's something that you have to do as a combo to get the bear one. And uh the bear one, you don't want to miss out on. I had so much fun just hiking through the woods. And it felt so unreal. And once I like got there and the one of the tour guides came out of the woods with the shotgun, I just like realized, wait, there's like a level of danger here. And when we found out we were hiking just like off path, like just through the woods, they have their own private little like docks there. I was like, "Wow, this is cool." But I mean, the brown bears there have so much to eat. They literally have so much food that they're just like walking around. I mean, we got to see three bears in total. And uh one time we just watched this one bear walk from from basically the start of the creek all the way to the end. And he must have gotten like 20 salmon. Literally just nope. And I was like, "Wow, this is so amazing." At one point they were like 12 maybe 15 feet away from us and he just was living life snacking on all the salmon and we were really quiet. I didn't want to film a lot of it. I was being very, you know, cordious of the surroundings and seeing the bald eagles. I mean, wow. You couldn't have asked for a better excursion. And then, of course, I definitely recommend the glacier viewing uh adult uh uh uplose tour. The adult one comes with the glacerita, and you don't have to pay extra for it. I do think it's on the family one, but uh it's not included, and uh it's a little bit quieter when there's no kids on the boat. And it was just cool being able to touch the ice and talking to the bartender how like they literally go out and pick up ice straight from the water, bring it on the boat, break it up, and then put it in the cup and pour the margarita like and you're drinking thousand-year-old ice. It was such a cool experience. I mean, honestly, I have nothing great but great things to say about Alaska and cruising through there. I do have to say we're probably a little biased because we got the best weather. Well, the only one day we had a day at sea and it poured all day. Literally sun up to sun down and the uh you couldn't even see any of the mountains as we were getting to Alaska cuz it was so foggy out. So, uh that day I didn't film anything. I just jumped right into the the glacier viewing, which I'm glad I did. Oh, overall, like I said, it was such a memorable vacation and I'm happy that I got to make a video and share all of my experiences with you. You let me know though in the comments which, you know, excursion do you think was the best or the funnest. And uh I hope you enjoyed the video because I enjoyed making it. And uh we'll see you next time. Bye. Okay.
