Juneau Alaska

We made it to Alaska !!!!! Our first stop was in Juneau, their state Capitol ! What a quaint little town !

We took a bus out to see the Mendenhall lake and Glacier

A huge waterfall nearby, you could feel the mist in the air, amazing how much water rushes down from those snowy peaks all around.
These ice bergs all were in the mendenhall lake in front of the glacier, the little kayak shows how big some were.

We took the walk back to get as close as you could to the glacier.

After spending the morning doing that we decided the best way to see the town was to do a bit of geo caching. What fun out of the way places you find. Local people have hidden these treasure hunts in some fantastic spots you'd never find. We walked and walked thru the streets of Juneau, up to the hills behind the town.

Waterfalls and a wonderful flume trail.

Coming back thru town we saw some neat totem poles, it was great to get into the neighborhoods and see what it'd be like living in Juneau Alaska !
Of course the touristy stuff is there but how fun to see life in Juneau on the "other side" !

Back to the ship of course in search of FOOD !!!!
