Probably because Temsco is always crashing them. When I was in high school those crazy bastards crashed three into the same glacier in one day. Pilots from the lower 48 go up there to get hours so it's not like you're getting a seasoned pilot like Torch at the controls.

This is why I hate cruises.

It is not bad...We get to cover ground, and eat fairly well, all without worrying about anything. Plus, we have a nice room and get to relax the whole time. I get tired of the trips where I have to drive here to eat, and over there for the best drink, and then a great band across the way.

Plus, this is something new that Yamma and I get to experience together, and that right there is priceless.

I'll be interested to hear how you liked it after you get back cause neither my girlfriend or I have ever been on a cruise and we definitely want to do the Alaskan one. Experiencing something new together is the key as you said. Sounds like a blast.

I've never been on a cruise either, and this is a destination we both were eager to see. We are both outdoorsy, and I can't wait to see what I can photograph on this trip.

I hate I have to wait a few months for it though.

You will see TONS of whales, seals, and walrus.
