Great write-up about your cruise. Thanks for being so detailed! I had to pull up Google Maps and follow your journey as I read. :-)
If you had to give it a star rating, what would you rate it at?
Waves and ice are both fascinating. I love the rocking motion and I especially love endlessly crashing waves at the shoreline. Did you get to see the deep blue ice that I have heard tell of? What about the groaning of the ice? I can't wait to see all your pictures!
I've been wondering about the environmental impact myself. It is good to hear that the cruise lines (at least Princess Cruises) is thinking about this.
Maybe I will think about this for my next big vacation. I've only had one before ... to Hawaii from San Francisco. We flew and that actually turned out OK, except that it wasn't long enough to see/experience the whole of the Big Island. The idea of cruising around the Hawaiian Islands is very tempting.
