Alaskan Cruise

We just returned from a 7-day Royal Caribbean Cruise to Alaska. Everything about it was first class. We really didn't want to see it end. I am posting some highlights. Our ship was the Rhapsody of the Sea. It had 2100 passengers and 1000 crew members.

We took photos of our ship on the other side of the bay on an excursion on the Juneau Trolley.

Our stateroom was very lovely.


Notice Grandpa clowning around like Samuel.
Each day our stateroom attendant folded towels into amazing sculptures.

We really got a kick out of what he did with my shoes that I left out of the closet. He really entertained us and worked for a tip at the end of the cruise!
We took 245 pictures. I'll post another installment later. That's 11 down and 234 to post.

From Colorado to California

We have had a fun couple of week. We started the first week of our vacation in Vail, Colorado. We caught a Rockies game on a day trip to Denver. They have a beautiful ballpark. This is an annual trip we make. We attended the Temple in Denver. On our way to California we stopped over in Las Vegas. Gordon,Mother and I got to see Donny and Marie's high energy show. They were wonderful. Mom made the trip with us. She was pretty uncomfortable becuase she fell and broke her left wrist just days before the trip. It was a blast spending a week with kids and grandkids. Here we are purchasing tickets to Legoland. It is right across the street from our condos.

Check out how soaked everyone was from the boat ride.
