Cruising Alaska in 2005

My parents have enjoyed cruising in their retirement, as so many retirees do. In September 2005 my father brought all his children and their spouses along on a cruise to Alaska, something Vaiva and I could never afford given that we were in the midst of the college years for our own kids. It was a tremendous experience for all of us.

These are my two favorite photos from that trip, though neither touches on Alaska's beauty. As you can see, one evening the dinner was formal.
