Alaskan Cruise

We went on an Alaskan Cruise June 26 - July 3, 2011. We flew from Salt Lake City to Seattle and boarded our ship. We went to Ketchikan, Juno, Skagway in Alaska and Victoria, B.C. before returning to Seattle and back to SLC.

Atrium area of ship. These are floors 5, 6, and 7. Our stateroom was just down the hall on level 5. Always close to the action!!!

On the dock in Ketchikan, Alaska

Ketchikan Harbor. Ketchikan is the first city of Alaska and only accessible by boat and plane.
Lumberjack show in Ketchikan, Alaska


Totem Bight Park. Totem poles and a clan house. Ketchikan, Alaska



This is in Tracy Arm Fjord. Sea lions on the ice from Sawyer Glacier. The boat near Sawyer Glacier is a tourist boat, so you can tell how big the glacier is in proportion to the boat.



The salmon run at a salmon fishery near Juno.
Mendenhall Glacier near Juno and the waterfall. You can see the bottom of the waterfall on the right hand side of the picture with Joe.

Views of Juno, Alaska, the capital. There are no roads into this city. It can only be reached by boat or plane.

Views from Skagway train. The track was built to haul gold from the gold rush.


Town of Skagway, Alaska.

How fun!!!! Your stateroom looks very nice. It looks cold though, no one in the pool and you always have jackets on :-)
