The worst people we encountered on those cruises were the Nuevo rich Indians and Chinese and most of them were OK.

We did Alaska before COVID by a couple of years and can't recall seeing any Democrats. If we did they were so inconspicuous that I can't remember them. We did see plenty of Asians like you mentioned. The thing that stood out about them was that they always were masked up and very often in gloves. Like I said, this was well before COVID too. They were obsessive about it. A nice trip but I think if I ever do a big trip like that again, I'd like to see England, Scotland, and Ireland. The reason we did that one was because my mother wanted all her children to go on vacation with her. All her children and grandchildren went except one grandson who had just started a new job. Great scenery to be seen and no matter what I can say I've been to Canada.


We did:

New York
Halifax
Dublin
Belfast
Amsterdam
Brussels
Le Havre
London

I think it was 4 or 5 days across the Atlantic from Halifax to Dublin.

We had a fantastic time and met some great friends.

I don't remember any kids or Amish on the boat.
