Cruising Alaska: May/June 2006

Friday, May 19: We got to the dock early to avoid the rush (and so we could explore the ship), but staff training had apparently been minimal (this was the first Seattle departure of the season), and with computer and other problems added (even the card printer at our station didn't work), it took an hour and a half to get aboard. People were complaining about this hassle for days on the ship.
