Also doing a Japanese and Korean cosmetic giveaway at 5,000 subscribers, so check out my channel and see if you'd wanna subscribe . ^^
I decided to add some information on Alaska and where to go in Alaska for anyone who's considering of going there in the future ! We went on the Ruby Princess cruise btw (no i'm not sponsored though, i wish *ugly sobbing LOL)
Since this was also my first time experiencing a cruise, travelling to Alaska was a very different experience . But Alaska in itself was absolutely fascinating for the absolute abundance in nature that it had to offer . I never saw a waterfall prior to going to Alaska but I saw countless amounts of them (and it awed me every time) . Also just the fact that there were so little people in the cities and towns that we visited really fascinated me . In some ways, Alaska felt like another world . Another beautiful, distant other world .

♦ PLACES IN ALASKA
► Ketchikan
A town that is abundant in rainforests and brown bears ! It's also an observing site for Killer Whales during July and Humpback whales . There are also many salmon's and bald eagles in the wild here as you walk around . This place seems pretty abundant in seafood since there was so much salmon's and there was an all-you-can-eat crab restaurant there LOL .
► Tracy's Arm
This isn't a place that you can actually stop off at, but this was a place we sailed through that let us first witness the glaciers and icebergs .
► Juneau
An interesting little town that is also the observing site of the Mendenhall Glacier . This place is also very abundant in salmon and jewellery .
► Skagway
For some reason I was most impressed with the nature in the town of Skagway . The scenery to Skagway was choc-full of low hanging clouds, icebergs, snow tops and tree-filled mountains; with a stunning amount of waterfalls . It's a little gold rush town that is also very well known for its jewellery . We also did our zip-lining here . :D This place is close to Victoria, Canada as well so people also enjoyed two country tours at this place too .
♠ NOTES ON THIS TRIP
► ALASKA
In general Alaska is super rainy so it's important that you bring a raincoat or umbrella . Seriously . SERIOUSLY . It's fairly cold even in the Summer but also pretty humid and rains a lot so if you're planning to take pictures of anywhere near a body of water or outside, you're going to want to look at equipment for you camera gear that will waterproof it or help protect it in watery conditions . You might have better luck with the water during September to April; however the nights are far more longer than the day during these months-especially in Winter .
If you want to see the Aurora you'd want to go from September-April instead since Winter season has longer nights (and the Aurora is only viewable at night), and there would be more clearer skies . We saw a fair few amounts of wild bald eagles, seals and whales as well . But we only really saw like the tail or the blow hole of the whale haha . If you want to go Killer Whale watching you'd want to go to Alaska in July instead .
► GOING ON A CRUISE
If you'll enjoy eating 24/7 for free, and in general spending a lot of idle time on your holidays; then you'd enjoy this sort of holiday . If you're not planning on watching shows or enjoying the ships facilities though I really recommend you bring a book or something for the spare time because you'll spend a LOT of time on that ship lol . An extra note to be added though, the tours at Alaska are a separate price from the cruise as well . So for example you pay for the cruise, and then you pay an extra addition for the excursions they offer (like hiking and all you can eat crab).
For the first couple of days you might get sea-sick but its sickness is not as bad being on smaller boats . Also when you're on the ship for quite a bit, when you go on land you'll still feel the rocking of the boat- yes, don't worry . A little disorientating, but completely normal . xD

2018: A Year Well Spent on Chilkoot Lake - Haines, Alaska
Better late then never, it's my version of the 2018 YouTube rewind. I can't say that the budget was as high, or that the equipment is as nice. What I can say, though, is that my 2018 recap has Waldo World flair that you just can't find anywhere else.
Now, sit back, relax, and spend the next 5 minutes reminiscing the shear beauty that 2018 possessed, including Waldo World!
My goal for 2019 is 20 videos! THAT'S A LOT OF VIDEOS!!!

Our Trip to Alaska 2008 - Part Three
Hi. We took a 12 day trip to Alaska..flew from Las Vegas to Fairbanks, a train to Denali Park, then to Anchorage, then a cruise ship down to Vancouver. It was a great trip and we totally splurged on excursions...took over 500 photos and a LOT of digital movies. My darling hubby, Larry, decided to learn how to make a DVD from all of this and, BELIEVE ME, this was not easy for us. We have learned so much in the process, mostly about computers and how they can give you a nervous breakdown. Well, it's finally done....and we are content with the product and will be sending them out to friends and relatives...and also will be submitting the original to the Cannes Short Film Documentary contest this coming year!

Alaska's New Best Cruise Ship: Ovation Of The Seas
The new best cruise ship to offer cruises in Alaska (starting in May 2019) has been hiding in Asia and Australia for the last two years. But when Royal Caribbean's Ovation Of The Seas begins offering Alaska cruises next year, she will be the most state-of-the-art cruise ship (by far) to offer Alaska cruises.
In this video, I'll show you what's so special about Ovation Of The Seas, including several areas of the ship that will offer spectacular views while at the same time offering complete protection from the weather.
I'll also fill you in on some of the little improvements that Royal Caribbean has integrated in to this class of ship (Quantum-class) that offer some nice little benefits that you wouldn't have if you sailed on any of the old ships that the other cruise lines use in Alaska.
Unusual special features on this ship include NorthStar, a viewing pod that rises to 300 feet over ocean level to offer spectacular views... RipCord by iFly, a skydiving simulator... and SeaPlex, the largest indoor active space you'll find on any cruise ship.

The Alaska Railroad: Railfanning The Last Frontier
Where in the world can you ride along a jointed rail mainline at speeds of 40mph, without passing a single control point or signal tower for over 100 miles, on a nationally recognized premier passenger trains pulled by none other than SD70MACs and GP40-2s, soaring over cascading rivers, dwarfed by mountainous vistas effortlessly stretching into the sky, and past some of the most beautiful, untouched and breathtaking pieces of planet earth? The Alaska Railroad of course! This regional railroad operates from just east of Fairbanks, Alaska all the way down to Seward on 470 miles on mainline track, through some of the most intense terrain railroaders could ever dream of coming across.
The railroad is unattached to the rest of the railroading world, relying on barges from Seattle and Vancouver as the primary connection t0 the continental US. The Alaska Railroad is state owned, dating back to 1914. Being one of the last all EMD railroads, they roster 28 SD70MAC’s, being 4001-4016, and 4317-4328, the 4300 series being equipped with head end power, and 4317 being tagged as an Operation Lifesaver locomotive. The ARR has two ex-F40PH’s, now NPCU’s for some of the local passenger trains, and then finally the railroad has GP38’s, GP38u’s, and GP40-2’s, seven of which are also equipped with head end power for the passenger service. Most of the railroad’s passenger rolling stock is ex-UP and ex-C&NW, which felt kind of surreal riding in a dome car that was once part of a crack passenger train on the C&NW to Chicago.
Hauling intermodal, gravel, export coal, jet fuel, and any other manifest freight, along with first class passenger service, and DPU’s if you’re lucky, this railroad really has it all. We were able to experience this railroad phenomena first hand over a 9 day period of time from late June to early August. Arriving in Anchorage, Alaska we didn’t have to catch our train until the next morning, so we hung around the downtown, watching the Blue Angels, visiting the huge farmers market, and of course, watching the trains. It never really got dark in Alaska, some of the videos were filmed close to 10 at night, and its perfectly light out. The next morning, we took the Coastal Classic down to Seward, where we would stay for the next week, finding all sorts of cool little spots to watch the trains travers the Alaskan wilderness. But alas, the railroad sent us the same consist every single day, so we relied on locational variations to keep us on our toes, even making our way to Portage Pass to film the Glacier Discovery towards the end of our trip. We were expecting the famed coal trains to come to Seward, but unfortunately the coal mine apparently lost a huge part of their contract with Seoul, the railroads main customer of coal. So not many coal trains to Seward. Although I did get news of one arriving the day after we left Alaska…funny how that works…
I’ve always wanted to film the Alaska Railroad, and now that I’ve done so, I can’t wait to go back for more. Thanks for watching and don’t forget to subscribe!
