YouTube Video Description

It’s a breathtaking Day 5 aboard the Grand Princess as we cruise through Alaska’s stunning Endicott Arm toward the impressive Dawes Glacier. This scenic sailing day on the Grand Princess treats us to awe-inspiring fjord landscapes, floating blue icebergs, and expansive views of the massive Dawes Glacier. As we were leaving Endicott Arm, we even caught sight of a bear on shore. After that, we were lucky to see a whale swimming nearby before enjoying the Formal Night Gala Dinner in Botticelli’s main dining room. The day ended perfectly with Remembering a Legend - A Tribute to Whitney Houston performed by Cheaza in the Princess Theatre. It was a wonderful blend of natural beauty, great food, and memorable entertainment aboard the Grand Princess. 📍 Ship: Grand Princess 📍 Cruise Line: Princess Cruises 📍 Departure Port: Vancouver, BC, Canada 📍 Itinerary: 7-night Alaska Cruise (round trip from Vancouver) 📍 Scenic Cruising (Day 5): Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier, Alaska 📽️Grand Princess - Sail Away from Vancouver - Day 1 https://youtu.be/o16kwDSP-UI 📽️Grand Princess - Sea Day - Day 2 https://youtu.be/TaO7gJdxQE8 📽️Grand Princess - Exploring Mendenhall Glacier & Juneau - Day 3 https://youtu.be/UPDP0XpXGJI 📽️Grand Princess - Skagway Streetcar - Day 4 https://youtu.be/09sOmwt34Uc 📽️Grand Princess - Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier - Day 5 https://youtu.be/JTOa2sWpDN4 📽️Grand Princess - Exploring Ketchikan, Duck Tour - Day 6 https://youtu.be/M4vUTU-jBNs 📽️Grand Princess - Final Sea Day, Galley Tour - Day 7 https://youtu.be/-1y01UFhoC4 📽️The Truth about the Grand Princess: Our Likes & Wishes (Grand Princess Review) https://youtu.be/c92sX7vhELg 📽️FREE Grand Princess Food - What's Included! https://youtu.be/-ZdMJoHPc-4 📽️Obstructed Oceanview Cabin Tour Grand Princess - E224 Deck 8 https://youtu.be/N0lxfPf7OMM 📽️10 Fears & Questions Before Sailing Grand Princess Alaska Cruise (Answered!) https://youtu.be/5HkD1YCuHBM 📽️River Rock Casino Resort + Gordon Ramsay Steak https://youtu.be/KDI1OKx1MkA 🛒 Book a Cruise on the Grand Princess: https://sovrn.co/3uleeof 🛒 Top Vancouver Excursions: https://sovrn.co/vfv93fx 🛒 Top Juneau Excursions: https://sovrn.co/ddywf5r 🛒 Top Skagway Excursions: https://sovrn.co/v67az5i 🛒 Top Ketchikan Excursions: https://sovrn.co/1i6bf19 🛳️ Don’t forget to subscribe for more Grand Princess content from our Alaskan cruise, including ship tours, dining highlights, and the beautiful ports of call. https://www.youtube.com/c/northernvikingexplorer?sub_confirmation=1 ✅ Follow us on Social Media Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/northernvikingexplorer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NorthernVikingExplorer TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@northernvikingexplorer Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/NorthernVikingExplorer Website: https://northernvikingexplorer.com/ Buy Me A Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/northernviking Join Our Email List: https://mailchi.mp/76a22c9e4722/emailsignup 🛒 Our Favorite Cruise & Travel Gear on Amazon (Affiliate) Gonex 30L Ultra Lightweight Packable Backpack https://amzn.to/3HwvdcD Light Duty - DIYMAG Magnetic Hooks 30lbs (3 Pack) https://amzn.to/3T9NcrQ Light Duty - DIYMAG Magnetic Hooks 30lbs (10 Pack) https://amzn.to/3HxlHpz Heavy Duty - Neosmuk Magnetic Hooks 100lbs (5 Pack) https://amzn.to/3HIyxRQ Cruise Luggage Tags https://amzn.to/3IyB4yB European Travel Plug Adapter (2 Pack) https://amzn.to/4csiHX3 PackTowl Personal Quick Dry Microfiber Towel https://amzn.to/3JvOlVO Level8 Luggage Set (20" & 28") https://amzn.to/4cfw8rv Level8 Compression Packing Cubes https://amzn.to/3HtpRyQ YETI Rambler 20 oz Stainless Steel Mug https://amzn.to/4lJhIFK GoPro Hero 13 Black - https://amzn.to/4eAGYd8 ⌚Time Stamps 00:00 Introduction 00:24 Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier 03:35 Botticelli's Dining Room for Lunch 05:52 Bear Spotted 07:06 Whale Spotted 08:00 Gala Dinner in Botticelli's Main Dining Room (Formal Night) 11:29 Cheaza "Remembering a Legend" Whitney Houston Tribute 13:05 Final Thoughts DISCLAIMER: This video and description contain affiliate links.
