College Fjord-Sunday June 14th







Our next day was spent sailing to College Fjord, which is just outside Anchorage.

Glacier Bay- Sat. June 13th
















Our next day was spent in Glacier Bay at the Margerie Glacier. We headed into the bay quite early, picking up Park Rangers at 6am. It was very foggy as we headed in and I thought we would see very little. But as the morning went on the skies cleared and we had a great day. I saw bears here, puffins, bald eagles and whales as we came out.

Sdagway-Friday June 12th
















Skagway was the next stop on our cruise--The Gateway for the Goldrush. Here, Curtis and I rode the train to the White Pass. Saw a bear on our adventure. Still lots of snow at the top of the pass. Kind of an overcast day, with a few sprinkles.

Juneau-Thurs. June 11th















Our next stop was Juneau, the capitol of Alaska. Here Curtis and I did a whale and wildlife watching tour. Another fine day, which locals kept commenting on. The eagles were starting to show up as it soon would be time for the salmon to spawn.
