Answer 1.   The cruise was long, relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable except for a Nurovirus that lasted three weeks and went right through the ship.
Answer 2.   Plenty of photos and movies, (29 DVD's worth).  too many to post here.
Answer 3.   Wifey collects any overseas coins but I/we do not go out of our way to collect them.
Answer 4.   Non what so ever unlike the last cruise.
Answer 5.   That's an easy one.   ALASKA and up into the glacier country.   The Hubard Glacier, located at the northern end of Yakutat Bay, is 1.5 miles wide, 300-400 feet high and miles upon miles back.   Ice calving, (falling) off the front of the Glacier took around 400 years to travel from the back to the front.   Talk about impressive.   Words can't do justice for ALASKA.   If one wants to see something spectacular, then one must go to ALASKA.

Here are some shots of the Hubbard Glacier from the Ship:
