I had a good nights sleep at the hotel in Seward. When we looked out of the window from the lobby, we saw the Celebrity Millennium docked across the harbor. It was a hazy chilly morning.
The breakfast room was crowded so we happily shared a table with a middle-aged couple. The man worked in Alaskan state government and they were on their way to Juneau (the capital of Alaska) for the opening of the new legislative assembly. We had a lively conversation but largely avoided hot political topics.
We were so close to the cruise terminal, we decided to walk to the ship. It was the quickest boarding process ever and we spent the rest of the day exploring the ship and relaxing. Here are a few photos I took of the interior of the Celebrity Millennium before the crowds arrived:
It was foggy and overcast as the ship left the dock about six o’clock and headed south out of Resurrection Bay and into the Gulf of Alaska.
