Creator's Key Takeaways

I am fairly disappointed that Disney has chosen to invest so heavily in what I will call Revenue generating spaces

Icy Straight Point is the model of what Alaska needs to do everywhere with their ports

We saw about a pod of 20 to 30 orcas and they were just going kind of crazy

The Navigator's Veranda is a lowkey deep cut type of it might be a nice thing to do

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack layers and bring binoculars for Glacier Day
Try to enjoy the sunsets and stay up late to see the changing colors
Consider booking a Navigator's Veranda for protection from wind
