Creator's Key Takeaways

If you sail on the Sapphire Princess this season to Alaska, I feel comfortable in recommending Albert in the spa to do your hair.

The ship's Wi-Fi is really slow when you're in port there. Very slow.

Bring your nice camera with you to Alaska.

If you order a virgin dark and stormy, you're going to get ginger beer with some bitters in it and so it'll still be non-alcoholic.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Know how Wi-Fi works in Alaska ports and Glacier Bay
Bring a nice camera and binoculars for photos and wildlife viewing
Pack warm clothing, including a coat, long pants, and waterproof shoes
Order a virgin dark and stormy for a non-alcoholic seasickness remedy
