Hi Colsie, don't be to concerned or anxious yet as it is quite normal for the paperwork etc to arrive 2 to 3 weeks before your departure.

Have a fantastic time in one of my favourite parts of the world.Big Grin

Yes Missie we are going on the cruise as well.
It will be on the Dawn Princess. At this stage I dont know a lot about it though (the ship). I cant log onto the web page until we receive our booking number. Did you enjoy the whole experience and how did you manage with the clothes situation. (What to pack etc) Was it cold ??
Cheers ..Colsie

And HERE is a review of the ship.

And HERE are photos and other information.

Hi Colsie

I was in Canada and Alaska in May/June, the weather was wonderful, I would recommend taking cotton shirts or tee shirts (both short and 3/4 length sleeve) with 3/4 pants and a couple of pairs of long pants, a sleeveless vest, a jumper/cardigan, polo fleece is light to pack, a parker or light jacket, a light rain jacket (it always rains in Vancouver and parts of Alaska) and a set of nice pants and an evening top for the formal nights on the cruise. (On evening outfit for the cruise is plenty). A pair of comfortable walking shoes and a pair of evening sandals.

You will love the cruise, you will be treated like royalty. Smiler

Cheers
Missie

Thanks again Missie, I really do appreciate your recommendations. I do seem to pack more than I need but we can always buy a few things over there if we pack a little too light!!
Not that I need an excuse to go shopping !!!
It is a bit hard to get my head around the fact that it will be Canada's summer and it's been so cold here in Adelaide. So a few layers will be the go !! thanks Colsie
