Editor’s note: I absolutely can’t believe we are hitting the last week of July and this is the final piece in Alex‘s Disney Cruise Line Alaska series. How can it be? She’s ending with a bang though. Brunch at Palo? Sounds like a dream to me. Hope you enjoyed having Alex stop in and share […]
Read MoreI thought seven days in Alaska would fulfill any desire I had to see all this great state has to offer — the scenery, the wildlife, the beautiful sights. Wrong!
