JACKPOT! We are going to ALASKA!!!

WHOHOOOOO!!! Its only 226 days away! :)

On our last cruise we pre-purchased a future cruise. You paid $100/person and they gave you a credit of $250 to use towards the deposit of your next cruise. Ever since we got back from that cruise in January we have been watching rates trying to find a good deal for a cruise we wanted to go on.

Today we hit the jackpot! Norwegian sent an email about a sale with an 8 category upgrade. I knew the sale was a bunch of crap since they seem to raise the prices when they do that, but I decided to check the rates and see whats out there.

I found an Alaskan cruise for $499 for an inside room. I have been debating if I really wanted an inside room or if I wanted to pay for the balcony. I looked at the excursions, I was hooked, screw the balcony we can get an inside room and use the extra money to go on AWESOME excursions!

So we booked it! Here's where we are going:


What makes it even better is it goes out of Vancouver and into Seattle. This way we can see both places. I'm hoping we can go up a day or two early and check out Vancouver and Victoria and then stay in Seattle for a night after.
Now I can't stop looking at excursions, but I will save those for a different post another day!
