Set the alarm to make sure we awoke...just in case we slept (which we did!). Quick breakfast, then off to meet up as groups for our excursions at 8:10am.
We needn’t have rushed. There was a delay in getting the gangway sorted out. At least, that’s what we were told. We were delayed docking...had to get the bear off the docks!
Our trip was more than I expected. Thought we’d go to one spot & learn to improve our photography skills (regardless of experience). It was better! We had a bit of tour of the area. Very different spots. Near Cook Inlet (the bay of Anchorage), marshy spot, side of a mountain, large creek with waterfalls, mountain top. Wonderful! Much better acquainted with the extra features of my camera.
We had the option of being dropped off in town. We did that & had lunch at a local brewery. We had a great view of the jet fighters from the local air base...as well as the large cargo planes.
From there, walked back to the drop off point for the shuttle back to the ship. Time to rest up for our next activity: Dinner. Max said we were allowed to have curry. He asked what kind of meat (chicken). Then did we want chicken tikka masala. I said curry. He asked if we wanted (no idea what he offered), I said curry. Then he mentioned another one. I said...whatever you recommend. I’m a slow learner.
Last night’s beef wellington was wonderful!
Tomorrow night, we will be having a “pairing” dinner. So decision making is out of our hands. Um...which is really no different from any other night.
Tomorrow is another sea day. Another day of rest.
