Ted,

It's a great cruise up the Inside Passage. If the weather's good, then some 
of the views are fabulous. Of course it's more of a landscape/wildlife trip, 
unless 'street' includes the boat promenades! I'm afraid I can't help you 
with the teaching thing. I do lots of teaching, but that's to medics.

Best wishes,
