Hello, My DH and I are thinking of taking an Alaskan cruise this summer (most likely leaving from Seattle) and we were wondering which cruise line is probably the best. We are fairly young (37 & 43) and may be going with another couple, no children. We have been on two cruises prior - both 7 day/night cruises to the Mexican Riviera. One was on Carnival, Elation - we LOVED this one, and the other was on the Princess, Sapphire - were not as crazy for this cruise-line and/or ship. Thanks in advance for your input!

thanks guys! it's getting down to the wire now. i hope this is a good cruise. last friday i came down with influenza - the most horrible illness i've ever had. i ended up being off work all week. today is the first day i've felt even semi-normal. i have to take it easy and not overdo it...so hard when i'm so excited! :grin: well off we go - i'll be sure to write a review when i get back! ciao!! :kiss:

sounds like fun! is this something you sign up for after boarding the ship? i've heard the tour of the ship and kitchen is also worth taking... :smiley:

thanks jacketwatch and joeyanddavid :grin:

hi - i'm new to cruisecrazies. my husband, in-laws and i are sailing on the sapphire princes on oct 15th for the mexican riviera cruise. i'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a deck that wraps around the entire ship so that i would be able to do a few loops walking and running while out to sea. also - i am aware there is a track on the ship - does anyone know how big it is? i want to keep up some exercise while i'm gone as i do like to indulge in all of the delicious goodies :smiley: this will be our first time cruising on princess. we got married in april of 2002 on the carnival ship elation and took the mexican riviera cruse then as well. we weren't sure if we would really enjoy crusing - thought we might get bored. turns out we LOVED it and we are looking foward to going on many more cruises in the future. thanks for your help! :cheesy:
