I have requested a proposal from the tour company with several options/inclusions and price per each. When I get the proposal, I will post it and we can find out what we want to do with it. If it works, we will probably need to make some deposits. I will find out more when I get the proposal but this is a democracy so I will post a poll after all has reviewed it.

Lee, after 7 days on the cruise and a day or two pre-cruise 3 to 5 days post cruise, you will have had enough of Alaskan wilderness. If you want to extend your trip, I think you can easily do a longer pre-cruise. There is quite a bit to do. You could tour not only Vancouver, but Victoria and also Seattle and go a little further east into Canada. Without a doubt a week there could easily be spent - or more.
