Listener Question:
David asks: Hope you enjoyed your 'no boat' holiday Chris!
We've taken the plunge and booked our once in a lifetime trip for next year to Alaska on Queen Elizabeth. This is something we've wanted to do for years but decided it was probably now or never. It'll be our most adventurous and furthest-travelled to date and really excited about it. We picked voyage Q525 as there's a visit to Hubbard Glacier. Baz, is there any advice or guidance you can give for trips to Alaska, or even any maritime history connected with the area for coverage on the podcast? We definitely want to get a sailing excursion around Hubbard Glacier (and I've been reliably informed that my wife Louise wants to do a husky sled excursion in one port call!)
Just thought it would be good to hear some trusted first hand travel or port info from someone in the travel industry know!
Still the best podcast with you guys. It's great to listen to the camaraderie between you every week, really cheerful!
