Creator's Key Takeaways

It's about the fact that there was poor communication.

I thought that was pretty cool.

Wheel of Fortune was more interactive and more fun than Dealer No Deal.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you are in The Haven, use the dedicated gangway for priority disembarkation and embarkation.
βœ“Keep purchased knives in your luggage when going through ship security.
βœ“If you have the Galaxy Pavilion package, be aware that it is non-transferable and only valid for one person.
βœ“Check your onboard account frequently for refunds if an excursion is cancelled.

The day we've been anxiously waiting for! It's our Juneau port stop and we have an incredible NCL excursion booked, Dogsledding on a Glacier via Helicopter Ride. Find out how our day really goes. But first, we enjoy a day at sea since we did not disembark the ship until 4 pm. Arcade, Galaxy Pavilion, Wheel of Fortune, Deal or No Deal, and Balloon Twisting were a lot of fun. 00:00 Intro 02:07 Outfits of the Day 03:40 Breakfast at the Garden Cafe 06:14 Galaxy Pavilion 10:05 Game Shows & Balloon Twisting 16:17 Arrival in Juneau 21:09 Fail x 2 22:04 Goldbelt Tram 24:09 Shopping at Caribou Crossings 26:15 Duck & Orca Farts 27:20 Recap of the Chaos 30:40 Merch Haul
