We had a
great cruise to Alaska and back with parents and siblings this week. We started in Seattle spending the first full
day and night at sea.
Our first
stop was Juneau, where we hiked to the Mendenhall Glacier. The ice was interesting to look at with its
blue color.
The next
day we were in Skagway. We took a train
up the trail where the gold miners went.
It was spectacular scenery.
We also
went on a guided tour of Skagway where we got a lot of history of the area.
The next
day we went through the Tracy Arm Fiords.
There were wonderful views of glaciers and other wild landscape.
The next
day we stopped in Ketchikan. It was
spawning time for the Salmon. We got a
good movie of them going up the stream.
