Sunset from Roslyn's home in Abbotsford, BC.

Overnighting at cousin Roslyn's home before boarding the cruise line next day, was a blast.

This was a highly personal endeavour - celebrating the 50th wedding anniversary of my brother Norm and his wife Jenny, on board a Holland America cruise line, Zandaam - and what a backdrop to have for the occasion - Alaska!

This blog was written mostly while in Jerusalem but completed on my return to Calgary because Israel was totally absorbing. After this Alaska cruise we had only three days before boarding the plane for Israel.

Pretty calm waters, excellent on-board service and a great family sojourn was the setting which climaxed with the spectacular Glacier Bay.

Enjoy the photographs as they speak for themselves.

My name is Roger and I am originally from the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia but now live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. My wife Jeanette and I have traveled to all the continents with the exception of Antarctica but nevertheless still have many other countries and areas that we wish to experience in the future.

So nice
to see such a great relation between your brother and you. So lovely that you could share this special anniversary with him. It is not a given. Unfortunately many brothers or sisters don't like each other
