We just got from a beautiful trip to Alaska. We went with Tim and Vicky, Shawnna and Casey and Ben to Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Victoria(British Columbia).
We started off in Seattle where we got to take a quick trip to the fish market. We watched them toss some fish and we ate at the Athenian. The seats where Shawnna and Casey are sitting is where Tom Hanks and Rob Reiner sat in Sleepless in Seattle.
This was in Tracy Arm Fjord. We cruised through the fjord up to see Sawyer glacier.
Here we are just getting to Victoria in British Columbia.
Salmon fishing in Ketchikan. We caught a few different types of Salmon. Casey caught 2 halibut.
This is the fish that the 7 of us caught. Can't wait to eat some of it!
Victoria, British Columbia- Ben got to have a drink in the bar with all of us
This is near Skagway- We rented a van and drove 70 miles to Canada and the Yukon. It was a very scenic drive. We had lots of stops to take in the views. Pictures really don't do it justice.
In Juneau we took the Mount Roberts tram to the top of the mountain.
We went zip lining in Juneau. We rode a boat over to an island where we took a big truck up the mountain and then a little trek the rest of the way to the top where we hooked up to the zip line and went from tree to tree hundreds of feet above the ground through an old gold mine. This is a must if you ever get the chance.
Photo opp. on our way back from Canada during our 70 mile drive when we were at port in Skagway.
Our guides on the zip line were reassuring as we were up so high in the air.
