I didn't want to shell out for VOOM, so I couldn't live blog during our trip on Ovation a few weeks ago, but I figured I'd share my thoughts and pics from our excursions, as that's what I took the most pics of. I'll split it into 3 or 4 multiple posts - one for each excursion.
Juneau - We did the combined tour of both the Mendenhall Glacier and the Mendenhall gardens nearby. I'd have loved a little more time to hike at Mendenhall on my own, but as we had our 2-year-old with us, all excursions had to be booked through Royal, and several of them were off-limits to anyone under 12 due to COVID and operator policies.
If you go to the glacier, I strongly advise taking the short hike down to Nugget Falls. We had roughly an hour, and we had enough time to go to the fall
