Creator's Key Takeaways

we did this back in 2017 with my wife and now we have a child and are retaking this whole cruise over again

definitely recommend you bring binoculars if you do the Las Cruise or a good lens on your camera would definitely help too

definitely recommend a balcony room if you're doing the Alaska cruise as you can't really beat this

Glacier Bay is definitely one of the highlights of the Alaska cruise

Book a balcony room for the best views

YouTube Video Description

Welcome to day 4 on our Alaska Cruise! In this video we go through Glacier Bay National Park and get to enjoy sweeping views of the Alaska lanscape and do some wildlife spotting! This year we went to Alaska about 2 weeks earlier in the year than when we went in 2017 and the weather was definitely colder! Later in the day we enjoyed the Cake Your Way event at the Lido Market and it was spectacular! Our top picks were definitely the Mocha Pralene and the Creme Brulee cake! 0:00 Day 4 1:09 Cruising Glacier Bay National Park 5:00 Hello Margerie Glacier! 11:36 Cake Your Way Event 12:41 Day 4 Recap #alaskacruise #hollandamericacruise #eurodam #familyvacation #alaskacruise #cruise #alaska2024 #familycruise #traveltips
