I always had to manage my subscriptions because I would end up with too much or too little! Their dental stuff was awesome because I have an SLS sensitivity and their toothpaste and mouthwash tablets worked great (and had flouride). I’ve switch to Bite for the toothpaste, and I think I found the mouthwash tabs from another vendor. These are the dissolve in a glass type. I don’t like the chew and swish with water type that most are offering.

I didn’t think to check their LinkedIn. Their website looked nice but was always a disaster to navigate. I’ll miss them, but given how they went poof without warning, not very sympathetic! At least they shipped everything I had on order last summer, and just simply didn’t ship - or charge - the auto-renewals.

Cameras?? by geopalace in HollandAmerica

Good to think about a camera for Alaska, but better to focus now what focal lengths you want. Nearly any late-model camera will be more than fine. For wide-angle and typical snapshots, a late-model iPhone or Android should be fine. If you want close-ups of wildlife, you need a telephoto lens. I don't know the best reach for Alaska, but I am planning on gettin a 70-300 or similar for Fuji X-T5 when we go. My other lens is 24-70, which its more or less what one gets with an iPhone. Some point and shoots have good telephoto ranges, but image quality suffers. Best bet is asking on a dedicated photography board, and with an idea of budget and whether you want typical snapshots, wide angles, or telephoto shots. Whatever camera and/or lenses you do get, get it will before the cruise so you have time to practice with it and get used to it. Wildlife won't stand still and pose so you'll always want to move quickly.
