Our second port day and we arrived in Juneau. We had a good breakfast in the restaurant and then got geared up for going outside. Xtra Tuffs and raincoats marked us as locals according to the tour guides. Our plan was to ride the city bus out to Mendenhall Glacier. This was to save ourselves… Continue reading Travel & Adventure Day: Alaskan Cruise

Travel & Adventure Days: Alaskan Cruise
Our third day we arrived in Skagway. I haven't been here since I was a little kid. Ty and the kids have never been here. So this was a fun new location and it was good to get off the boat. We got R up early enough so we could have breakfast in the restaurant.… Continue reading Travel & Adventure Days: Alaskan Cruise
Travel & Adventure Days: Alaskan Cruise
We decided to try something new, we're cruising SE Alaska! We left out of Whittier (thanks Mom!) The first two days are just ship days. So we enjoy the endless food, the kids are pigging out on the ice cream, Lincoln has swam outside 2x and shocked half the boat, and we learned that walkie… Continue reading Travel & Adventure Days: Alaskan Cruise
Travel Day: Tokyo, Japan to Anchorage, AK USA
We had a nice lazy morning. Our flight doesn’t leave till 6pm so we don’t have to rush, which is such a luxury. Breakfast at the hotel included the ice cream bar again. That’s just so crazy to me! Weirder than the station where you could grill your own fish over charcoal. We went back… Continue reading Travel Day: Tokyo, Japan to Anchorage, AK USA

It’s DisneySea today! We woke up at 7am. Ty immediately went down to the Disney ticket desk to get our tickets. Thankfully he did! We got dressed, and headed to breakfast. It was a huge buffet, and it even had an ice cream bar! Then we grabbed some umbrellas from the hotel, because what’s a… Continue reading Adventure Day: Tokyo, Japan

Sleep was a bit up and down. Lincoln and I were up about 5:30, tried to get him back to sleep and didn’t get back to sleep myself till 7 and slept till 8:30. Thank goodness for that extra time. Today’s the day, we’re driving to Tokyo! We paid the expense and just went on… Continue reading Travel Day: Hakuba to Tokyo, Japan

We slept in till about 7, Ryder of course had to be woken up before we went to breakfast. Her and her teenage sleep needs! We planned to go ski at Tsugaike ski resort. It was a bit off the bus route so Ty drove us in the van. The resort was definitely a bit… Continue reading Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Well last night I noticed I was getting a stuffy nose, so by 9pm I was asleep. That also meant that I woke up by 6:30. I definitely have some sort of head cold but nothing more than that thank goodness. The plan we made was for Ty to catch the early bus at 8:40,… Continue reading Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Well today already has to be better, the sun is shining and it’s not blowing like mad! Breakfast in the hotel is yummy. They offer miso soup, soba soup, and pho soup here! You get the broth, and your noodles of choice, then add in the toppings. Mmm- but so far I’m the only one… Continue reading Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
Our sleep was pretty good. Everyone woke up about 8am. Ty informed us we should probably try and catch the 9am shuttle to the ski slopes otherwise we have to wait till 10:30. So we moved with a bit more haste than we would normally. Breakfast was ok, not over the top but nothing bad… Continue reading Adventure Day: Hakuba, Japan
