Hi,
Just touching base with all of our Alaska bound passengers. We are getting ready, are you? We are putting the schedule together and discussing the details with the cruise line. There is going to be so much to see, do and learn on this educational vacation.
This is the last week to book your trip - so don't miss the ship. It's not too late.
Come join us as we see Bo marry his lovely bride on July 31st.
Looking forward to seeing you on the ship!
