Off the Grid

“From the floors of the ocean, the waves of the tide, a vacation awaits you far and wide.”

Those of you following my blog know it went dark last week. Why? I was out cruising to Alaska.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2012, and I usually pre-schedule posts during holidays and vacations. This time around, I took a true break.

So if you’re looking to do some virtual escaping, here are a few highlights from my trip:

1) Animals. Every night we got a special towel animal in the room.

Made this one during towel folding class!

2) Food. We had a great buffet on a boat cruise.

Ate lots of salmon. (This pic was during teatime.)

3) Lumberjack show. Saw a fun competition featuring rugged men.

Lumberjacks at work. What else do I need to say?

4) Tropy. Won a prize for a general trivia contest.

A golden replica of the cruise ship.

5) Whales. Had a whale of a time! (We actually saw one arc in front of us, but I couldn’t catch it in time.)

See that black blip? It’s a whale tail.

Any fun vacations for you this summer?
