Alaska: Day 3 (06-26-10)

After a quick hotel breakfast, we loaded up the car and drove from Bellingham down to the dock where the cruise ship was awaiting our arrival. Dand and Adam dropped off the rest of us with all of the luggage while they returned the rental car and took the light rail back into Seattle. When they arrived at the cruise ship terminal, we went through the long line to board the Golden Princess of Princess Cruise Lines.
Once onboard, we went straight to our cabins to check them out. It was a pleasant surprise to see that these were the biggest cabins we've ever stayed in. (This was my fourth cruise. I've had some really small rooms but this one came complete with a queen-sized bed and ample storage.) We unpacked and settled in a bit before going to grab a quick bite to eat at the afternoon buffet.
Next, we started a self-guided tour of the ship. We started at the top of the ship and worked our way down. The ship has multiple pools, hot tubs, nightclubs and dining rooms. We checked out almost every corner of the ship from the fitness room to the spa facilities before heading down for our first sit-down dinner on the ship.

First things first...a drink for the boys while the girls take pictures...
