Just curious. Do they have internet on those ships? SATCOM based maybe?

There is internet access on cruise ships, but it is very expensive.

Hope you have a good time. Out of curiosity, what's the ship and where are you going?

hey guys i'm back, i had a good time, we went on the Disney Wonder, we were going to go on the Soverign Of the Seas (spelling) but it was sold out, and my father and i got the last room on the last cruise of the weekend, so we really didn't have a choice. Amazingly there was plenty to do for teens, although i personally did not do much i saw other teens really enjoying the teen lounge. I met a few friends and we played hide and go seek around the entire ship. The food was fabulous, every night something new, but it would be GREAT. we went from Port Canaveral, FL to Nassua, The bahamas, and then to disney's private island, Castaway Cay, The water was beautiful. My father and i rented some Funcats, which is a huge beach chair that you lay down on in the middle of two pontoons, ( catamaran ) which had a motor on each pontoon, and at the press of a button you would be able to go foward, backwars, side to side, 360, 180 ETC, All in All it was a great cruise and it is not just child oriented.
Mark what cruise are you taking to Alaska, i took the NCL pearl up there last June, and it was great. also Mark, what ports will you be sailing into?

We are going on the Golden Princess leaving out of Seattle. We port in Skagway, Juneau, Ketchekan, Victoria, and one other I can't remember right at the moment. I can't wait for a vacation. I have been working my tail off lately and it's been about 95 degrees in Atlanta for the past few weeks.

i have heard The Golden Princess is a really nice ship, in ketchikan try and go to the Seastar, it is a former deadliest catch ship, just look around for alot of docks and eventually you will see it, it's hard to miss.
also in skagway you should take the train ride, it is amazing, i went up to alaska on the same itenery ( spelling? ) but different ship, all i can say is wow! enjoy your cruise!
