Embarkation Day! Our Alaska adventure begins as Brian and I set sail roundtrip from Seattle aboard Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas. In this first video of our Alaska Cruise Series, we take you along as we board the ship, explore our stateroom, check out the dining and entertainment, and soak in that “first day at sea” excitement.

Get ready for breathtaking views, big-ship energy, and the start of an unforgettable journey to Sitka, Skagway, and Juneau, Alaska. ❄️

🎥 Come aboard — our Alaska adventure starts now!
