Alaska Cruise – day five – Juneau

Today was a stop at the mining town of Juneau. We woke up, had room service deliver breakfast to our room, then headed out to the town in search of Chad and Sarah. We found them, but split up again to do our own tour of Juneau. We took a tram up the mountain side, and marveled at the views from above. We could see our cruise boat along with three others at the dock, and had a great view of town. After hiking about a bit up top, we came down and window shopped for a bit before heading back to the boat. We then relaxed in the viewing deck area and ended up seeing three sightings of whales! However none of our pictures turned out that great of the whales…they were hard to catch on film (or should I say memory card ;0)) We took a gamble, and gambled at the casino this evening. We bought in with $10, won some more, but left with nothing. Oh well, it was a fun use of ten bucks. After some games with the Beggs, we are now heading to bed.
