Wrapped in a red, white, and blue flag pattern, a tiny rubber duck named Banner set sail aboard the Norwegian Joy in May 2026, heading toward the rugged Alaskan frontier. From the deck, Banner gazed in awe at icy blue glaciers and misty mountain peaks rising from the sea. One brisk afternoon, a sudden gust sent him sliding across the railing, but he caught against a coil of rope just in time. A kind traveler found him and tucked him safely into a pocket, where he continued his journey warm and watchful. By the time the ship reached Alaska, Banner had become a tiny symbol of resilience fluttering through a grand adventure.
