YouTube Video Description

Welcome to Day 1 on board the Carnival Spirit as we set sail out of Seattle Washington at Pier 91 for a 7 day cruise to Alaska with port stops in Skagway, Juneau, and Ketchikan. We also sailed the Endicott Arm Fjord to see Dawes Glacier as well. Today is the best day, Embarkation Day! Come along while we explore the Carnival Spirit, which is my favorite Carnival Ship Class. and look for a spot for the sail away party. It was weird seeing everyone in long sleeves and pants, but the weather was a balmy 50 degrees and overcast. I'm excited for this cruise! Thanks for watching!
