My friend from here sent me a shield, and I used it for the driving part of my trip. (thanks, Three!) I was on the Rhapsody of the Seas for an entire week and just had one small leak! What a great time. I saw humpback whales, Edicott Glacier, Juneau, Skagway... went up on the tram 1,800 feet up on a cable. I highly recommend the Skagway museum. My son and I are already talking about another AK cruise for next Aug. I hope no one puts off a trip like this just because of having an ileostomy or whatever pouch issues they may have; it was a blast! Gentle hugs from Lex.
