After three days in the inside passage of Alaska, the first leg of our trip is in the books. This leg was all about recovering from the four hour time difference while enjoying the scenery and looking for whales. We spotted a pod of humpbacks with our binoculars. So cool.
After boarding at Vancouver, the first port was Juneau, where we disembarked to enjoy a cool, sunny afternoon in Alaska’s capital. The port shops were packed so we opted to go up for the views.
Meanwhile, back on the ship…
We did a fair amount of eating, sleeping, and playing games in the library. The highlight of the trip so far was at our specialty dinner to celebrate our 50th anniversary.
Today is Saturday. I know this only because the ship is kind of enough to change the elevator floor mats every day.
Our land excursion starts today as we disembark in Skagway and get ready for our next adventure.
