I wanted to do something BIG.... a trip that they would never forget. Something Jack and Sam would enjoy and an adventure that Jonn and Jenna could get excited about. It took a while to land firmly on the idea of a cruise because motion sickness runs rampant in the Livingston family and Jenna is claustrophobic. So it makes perfect sense to board a huge ship holding around 6,000 people that is moving in the ocean for most of the trip...right??? We chose Royal Caribbean, a new line for us, because of the options for kids and the ports of call. Scagway and Juneau were our destinations and Jonn and Jenna chose several fabulous excursions. They elected to kayak on the ocean with whales (in the distance)
and they chartered a helicopter that flew them to a glacier where they took a short hike. In spite of their motion sickness issues they had a fabulous time. John and I chose tamer adventures, a whale watch where we saw a mama and baby and a land tour that was interesting.
Our flights to and from the cruise were a challenge to say the very least ......
but it really was a fabulous trip even though we had to lie to get Jack on the ship......
