Is this what celebrities do in their spare time, when they sail north to Alaska? I really don’t know, not being one. Could I picture Tom Cruise as a musher? Hugh Jackman landing a helicopter on a moving sheet of ice? Taylor Swift petting the adorable, loveable dogs? Yes, for sure. I could see that.
It’s a thought that passes through my mind – albeit fleetingly – as we lift off from a helicopter pad, my anticipation rising with the speed of the rotor blades overhead. Earlier that morning our ship, the Celebrity Edge, navigated into a narrow fjord girded on all sides by soaring, snow-capped peaks.
