Otherwise known as Revenge of the 5th :darth:

You’re welcome - glad you had such a good time!

To be fair, there was a good amount of bus time to get to the various places we visited. But with 23 guests on a full-sized bus, there was plenty of room to spread out. Plus the views were amazing, and our guide shared lots of interesting information along the way.

Accommodations were: Anchorage: Hilton - typical Hilton. Good location with easy walks to restaurants and shops. Talkeetna: Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge - epitome of a mountain lodge. Very comfortable, fantastic mountain views, great staff. Fairbanks: Pike’s Waterfront Lodge - funky old-time lodge...

Depends on your definition of minimal. We had stateroom 7636 on the Wish, and the larger balcony (as depicted on the deck plan) allowed us to have a lounger along with the table and two chairs which was very nice. There are similar rooms, all at the edges of the bump outs.

Just back from a March Alaska Northern Lights trip, which ABD does not offer. After reading reviews, we booked through AAA Travel, though the trip ended up being managed by Collette Travel, which is apparently a well-established company though we had never heard of it. Bottom line is that it was...

Or 3 😁

Definitely the bbq beef salad - it’s excellent! The stir fry noodles are pretty good, too.

Jo was also an amazing singer. On one of our cruises, she did an incredible version of Fleetwood Mac’s Landslide backed by John Charles (who we also miss seeing perform) on guitar.

Would highly recommend Van from the Philippines for server.

Yes. We’ve done this in the past. You have to use the provided snorkel vest, however.

Take this for what it’s worth (perhaps not much) but there’s a rumor out there that the Cake Bake Shop folks were very aggressive in trying to convince Disney to develop a WDW location, and that they may have financially overextended themselves with the commitments they made to get this one up...

This is the current one. The Dream now has the (yummy) pides that originated on the Wish. https://disneycruiselineblog.com/menus/menu-viewer/?Menu=153&Version=770

Please believe me when I say that the Citron on the Remy dessert menu has to be seen to be believed (and until you break into it you’re still not convinced). It’s also absolutely delicious.

Wow. I think you mean “ABD should have known that.” If they’re going to offer a trip under those circumstances, then they’re the ones that should be prepared for logistical problems that were likely able to be anticipated. To the OP, I’m so very sorry to hear about your experience.

We did World of Gin on our Dream cruise a couple of weeks ago. It was really good, and significantly less expensive than World of Old Fashioned ($60 v $100). It was held in Meridian at 10PM. We got lots of extra tastes of things, with some very creative cocktails including ending with an awesome...

The water at the first stop was not rough, but it’s a drift snorkel along the reef, so you float along with the current and the boat follows to pick you up at the end. Snorkeling vests are required, but they also have regular life jackets for those who prefer them. There are three crew in the...

The excursion was at 11:30, and lasted about 4-4.5 hours.

When we met Star Lord, there was a group sitting and waiting for it to change over to Groot, and the CMs seemed to be ok with that. YMMV, though.

Sad. I’d already become disillusioned with Enchanté dinner, which I’ve found in three visits to simply not be as enjoyable as Remy. For me, it came down to less variety of choices, as well as the more experimental nature of the menus (confirmed for me by staff) being more hit or miss. I still...
