  1. Canadian Cruiser, thanks for the info. It's very helpful! So does it rain a lot in March? Will the flowers be in bloom?
  2. Hi, We have a Hawaiian cruise booked for March 22 - 29 on Pride of America. Someone recently told us that it may be chilly and the plants not in bloom. Is that true? What are typical temeratures? When is the best time to cruise Hawaii? We're limited to holiday weeks and summer, due to teaching schedule. Would July or August be better? We plan to do lots of excursions. We're not "hang out on the beach" people, so if it's pleasantly cool weather, that's OK. I'm just hoping to get some great photos of plants, waterfalls, volcanoes, etc. We've heard mediocre reviews of the ship, so we're not expecting much in that regard. We just consider a roaming hotel the best way to see a lot of Hawaii at one time. Thanks. Karen
  3. Thanks for that information! It's very helpful :grin:
  4. Hi, We are cruising to Alaska August 13, 2005 on RCL Radiance of the Seas. This is our first cruise. Can anyone tell me about the weather in Alaska in mid August? We have a lot of excursions booked: Juneau:<] Mt Roberts tramway, Pilot's choice glacier exploration... Skagway:<] Skagway extravaganza - White Pass and Ukon Railway... Liarsville gold rush trail camp ... Liarsville cook house.... Red onion saloon Ketchikan:<] Totem Bight and Heritage Deluxe I always think of Alaska as cold and snowy but I've heard it's in the 60's in August. Will we need to bundle up for the glacier trip? How should we expect to dress for the other excursions? We plan on bringing a backpack with snacks and waterproof rain gear, just in case. Are heavy parkas overkill? Will there be temperature differences depending on which excursion we're on? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Karen <]
