After spending time at the Market, we went back to the ship to board. You had to go through several different areas before you were on the ship. First had to show your tickets, then give up your luggage unless you wanted to keep your carry-on since we didn't know if our luggage would be in our room before dinner time. Then you stood in line with your passport like at an airport security check. Bags, luggage, purses, etc went through the x-ray machine. When we made it past that we stood in another line to talk to a Celebrity employee to make sure we had the right dinner times and excursions. Finally, after that, we were able to board the ship.
If you look closely you can see the luggage in the yellow bin.

Our room with the balcony! Most days it was cold but we still wrapped ourselves in swim towels and jackets and sat outside to view Alaska! You wouldn't want to be inside to experience this state!
Notice the other ship? There were 3 of us leaving around the same time for Alaska. We only saw them for a bit then we all must of been in different ship channels or were starting our cruises at different places because when we looked later we didn't see them anymore.
