Ketchikan was our final stop in Alaska and the big goal was to see the Salmon running on Creek Street. Let me say this. All was well until we hit the gift shops!

My First Alaska Cruise with Princess Cruises… and it was NOT what I expected! From breathtaking glaciers to surprising onboard moments, this is my honest take on sailing to Alaska with Princess for the very first time.
Our cruise was a 7 night cruise on Discovery Princess, sailing from Seattle. In this Alaska cruise video I share what’s it really like on a Princess Alaska cruise? What was the itinerary like & did the excursions live up to the hype? How was the food, entertainment, and the ship itself?
If you’re planning an Alaska cruise or wondering if Princess is the right choice, this video is for you. You might be wondering if Princess is the best cruise for Alaska, whether cruising with kids or as seniors. I’m sharing my experience, tips I wish I knew, and what surprised me most about cruising Alaska.
We were hosted by Princess Cruises, however all opinions are my own.

Today, government officials, community leaders and local residents of Grand Bahama were treated to an exclusive preview of Celebration Key, Carnival Cruise Line’s new exclusive destination. The special preview event showcased the fun Carnival guests will experience, while creating significant economic opportunities for the local community. The preview took place in tandem with the embarkation of Carnival Vista that will make the first official visit to Celebration Key for its July 19 grand opening.
During the preview event, attendees experienced the destination’s key features firsthand, including its centerpiece Suncastle and racing waterslides, as well as the largest freshwater lagoons in the Caribbean. Local officials toured the five distinct portals that will offer guests diverse experiences, from next-level relaxation at the adults-only Pearl Cove Beach Club to ultra-fun family adventures at Starfish Lagoon. The destination is home to more than 30 food and beverage venues and a retail village that features the work of local artisans.
“Celebration Key is a beautiful destination that I know will be extremely popular with our guests, but it’s also a beautiful representation of the great partnership between Carnival and the people of Grand Bahama. This is the first major project to be completed on the island of Grand Bahama in 20 years or more, and we’re proud to be the cruise line to bring it to fruition,” said Christine Duffy, president of Carnival Cruise Line. “We wouldn’t be here today, now just a week from our first official visit with Carnival Vista, without the dedication of hundreds of Bahamians who helped to build Celebration Key. We’re proud as well of the hundreds of long-term jobs created by the destination’s daily operations – providing substantial economic benefits to the island while also celebrating Bahamian culture.”
Duffy also welcomed guests on board Carnival Vista in Port Canaveral today, making a special announcement to guests who will make the inaugural visit to Celebration Key in one week. The opening ceremony will be broadcast on Carnival Cruise Line’s Facebook page beginning at 10 a.m. ET on Saturday, July 19. After its grand opening, the destination is set to welcome 20 Carnival ships from ten U.S. homeports. Celebration Key is expected to bring approximately two million guests to Grand Bahama in its first year of operation, generating significant revenue for the local economy.

“Why does everyone hate MSC Cruises?” That’s the question I kept seeing over and over online… so I booked a 3-night cruise on MSC Seascape to Nassau and Ocean Cay to see if the internet was right — or just being dramatic.
🎥 In this video, I break down: – My insanely fast 7-minute embarkation – What the ship actually looks like (including my balcony cabin) – That waterpark, the Robotron ride, 11 restaurants, 13 pools, and more – And yes… we visit one of the most beautiful private islands I’ve ever seen (Ocean Cay is legit PARADISE)
🚢 Whether you’re thinking about cruising with MSC, already booked, or just here for the chaos — this one’s for you.
