YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Our first port day and excursion has arrived along with some actual energy and excitement! We spend the morning eating and watching whales in the Observation Lounge and on deck. Watching the ship pull into dock is one of our favorite things to do and this one didn't disappoint. It is absolutely stunning here! We board the whale watching tour boat to Adolphus Point and see several whales an some incredible views (the weather was PERFECT)! After the tour, we take a quick ride into "town" before heading back to the ship for dinner and lots of wine in the Manhattan Room. We give our review of the tour before heading the bed. Come back next week for Alaskan Huskies and s'mores in Skagway! ๐Ÿ›’ Visit our Amazon shop for travel must-haves (Affiliate link): https://www.amazon.com/shop/thishappyplace #norwegiancruiseline #norwegianencore #cruise2021 2021 Norwegian Encore Embarkation Day & Le Bistro Dinner Vlog - https://youtu.be/MTjPFjHqxAA A NCL Encore Day at Sea - https://youtu.be/ZjF1E02VFQI We took a Disney Cruise in 2018 - if you're interested in those vlogs, check them out here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcHaURqh15XQCNeDDnb4KofDG7OAA_VjR Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThisHappyPlace Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/thishappyplacetravel #AlaskanCruise #Alaska #Cruising #CruiseVlog Norwegian Encore Vlog Norwegian Cruise Line Norwegian Encore NCL NCL Encore Norwegian Encore Alaska Norwegian Alaska Cruise Norwegian Encore Observation Lounge Alaska Cruise Excursion Alaska Cruise Tour Whale Watching Tour Alaska Whale Watching Humpback Whales Adolphus Point, Alaska Icy Strait Point, Alaska Hoonah, Alaska Alaska Cruise Port Alaska Cruise Stop Alaska Cruise Port Alaska Whales Alaska Wildlife Norwegian Encore Manhattan Room Norwegian Encore Balcony Room Norwegian Encore Food Norwegian Encore Drinks Norwegian Encore Cocktails Norwegian Encore Bars Norwegian Encore Ship Information Norwegian Encore Buffet Cruising During Covid Norwegian Encore Shows Norwegian Encore Theatre Covid Cruise Cruising 2021 Great Cruise Comeback
