That tree line as you sailed under Lionsgate Bridge is Stanley Park - 1,000 acres downtown Vancouver . Super nice walking or biking paths .

I loved the music on HAL. I see people saying there’s no entertainment on HAL ships, by which they mean production shows I guess, but the R&B on my HAL cruise was so good, I didn’t even mind how people-y the venue became.

I went to Prince Rupert BC last year on the Miracle. It’s a great town. We took the trolley tour. The town mayor got on every trolley to welcome passengers and thank them for visiting. It’s also home to North Americas smallest Walmart. They call it Smallmart

I am not sure you noticed, but when you were talking about the Canadian crack and whales, there were whales blowing in the background of your clip. Living on Vancouver Island (in the crack, although that doesn't sound right) we see whales from early spring to late fall.

Do you recall how long Vancouver embarkation may haven taken? I’m hearing it can be upwards of 3+hours! I’m hoping that would be lessened with fewer ships in port?! I’d appreciate any tips or tricks for our May 2024 Ruby Princess Alaska cruise. Thank you in advance ☺

There are a looooot of steps at Vancouver, it seems! On a good day, you're probably looking at about an hour to do all the steps, but at peak times they probably can get backed up!! :P

Typically there's a portion you complete in the app, but there's also a portion that you complete in person by visiting your muster station and having your card scanned.

Is Noordam close to a Spirit Class Carnival ship in layout? We were wondering how many kids were on board. I'd like to try Holland, but not sure if it would be a good fit with our 10 year old son. He loves Princess though. ❤ leaving from Vancouver!!!
@parodeejay

Noordam is probably about the same size as a Carnival Spirit-class ship, but we wouldn't say the layout is similar, no. It's pretty nice and flowy overall, but there's something about the flow of a Spirit-class ship that's just so nice!! :D

Hi Dee, hi Jay, can you tell me with your great Alaska experience, the best port for whale watching. Our ports are Juneau Skagway Ketchikan and Haines. Thank you very much and have a great day. Danny.

Heyo! Of that itinerary, your best bet would probably be Juneau. We enjoyed Harv & Marv's for the small boat experience, Juneau Whale Watch for the large boat experience, and the Juneau Lighthouse Tours option was a fun combo idea. Otherwise, I'm sure the ship has an array of offerings!! :D
