We’re “One the Road Again!”

Welcome Friends! We’re heading to Vancouver, BC for a seven day Alaska cruise aboard the beautiful Celebrity Edge. We leave Raleigh on May 15 and will spend the night in Vancouver before we board the ship and spend seven days cursing the Alaska coast. Our itinerary will be capped off by an up close look at Dawes Glacier before we disembark on May 23 in Seattle, WA. We will spend a day seeing the sights there before taking the redeye back to Raleigh and then home to Charlotte. 

We’d love for you to follow along! Below, you’ll find an interactive map of our itinerary, daily posts, curated playlists we made for this trip, photos, observations, and reflections. Check back throughout our trip for updates!
