Heigh Ho Scouts! Just returned from an amazing Alaskan cruise (NCL) and just had to share what a wonderful experience it was. We had “Perfect” weather for Glacier Bay and spent hours just enjoying the majestic scenery and wildlife. Another highlight was being invited to dance with a group of Natives who entertained us with their ceremonial drumming. I nearly started crying when I found out they were going to let us wear their ceremonial robes as well (okay I did cry, but luckily part of the dance was keeping our heads down haha). It was a truly humbling experience among many I had, including having two of my college buddies who, unbeknownst to me, booked the same cruise as a surprise! A wonderful reunion on top of an emotion-filled vacation. I’m one lucky guy. 😊 What are some of your favorite non-Disney trips?
What an amazing vacation! This is definitely on my bucket list and Erick really wants to go when you can see the Northern Lights.
I think my favorite non-Disney trips are the ones we have taken to lesser known locations in Mexico. I strongly suggest checking out Las Pozas in Xilitla. It is an incredible surrealist wonderland built in the mountainous jungle region north of Mexico City. It's like the fantastical ruins of an ancient civilation that never existed. There are mesmerizing stone spiral staircases leading to the sky and incredible natural beauty all around you. You can swim at the base of a waterfall - it really is magical.
We did an Alaskan cruise a few years ago and it was so beautiful - seeing the glaciers was a once in a lifetime! Glad you had fun!
