Sally'S Bed And Breakfast Juneau

... all sorts of flowers and plants in the top which is the base of the tree now. <br><br>Next it's onto Mendenhall Glacier. When we got off the bus I went to this bridge that overlooked a creek where salmon have been spawning and there have been many bear sightings. I didn't see any bears but saw several mangled and dead salmon so you know a bear (or bears) has been there. At an outlook and the ...

... World Highway and the streets of Dawson City are unsealed). There are a few marked tracks but mostly the park is designated as wilderness, so you can hike and camp anywhere you like apart from a few areas set aside for the wildlife only. <br><br>Saturday morning I slept in and decided to go for a walk after breakfast. I set off on the track up to Morning Mountain but the ankle I twisted on Whistlers Mountain at Jasper, and again since, started to hurt ...

... when she throws out this thoughtful question, &#8220;Do they use the Euro there?&#8221; Hmmm, I&#8217;m thinking Euro sounds kinda like Europe, which is in another hemisphere, but what do I know? He was much more gracious and said, &#8220;Well, no. They use the Australian dollar.&#8221; To which she asks, &#8220;What&#8217;s that?&#8221; At this point, I am thinking some fairly judgmental thoughts, so I&#8217;m really glad she&#8217;s not talking to ...

... day we saw the Hubbard glacier and it was a beautiful blue sky to see the glacier. There are mini icebergs in the water. To make us all feel safe (and not have visions of the sinking of the Titanic) it was announced several times that the captain himself was steering the boat with the assistance of a local guide. None of the icebergs were actually that big. <br><br>The captain went slowly and it took us about 2 hours to go about a ...

... a lot about it's past as it was originally inhabited by ther Russians. We also learned more about the Indigenous Alaskans and visited a park.<br><br>Tuesday - visited Glacier Bay which was definitely the highlight of the week. We saw lots of wildlife including brown bears, sea otters, sea lions, mountain goats, black bears and lots of birds. We also saw the Margerie Glacier -we had a Park Ranger and an indigenous Alaskan on board the ...

... nights if you didn't want too as the Lido Restaurant was casual dress at all times and I know some people went to this Restaurant to avoid getting dressed up. The entertainment on ship was very good and we went to all their performances. The cruise was smooth sailing at all times and you were lulled to sleep by a gentle rock.

... our clothes were soaked. When the couple left we went inside and changed into some dry clothes and get warmed up by the propane heater there. Guess what- No Propane! The heater was out of propane and all the wood was wet, however we managed to get a small fire going somehow in the wood stove- it was also the last fire we would get going again. But it was enough to get our boots dried at least. We had Spaghetti for dinner and made it an early ...

... where we explored. I finally got to see my statue of Patsy Ann. Patsy Ann is the famous Bull Terrier of Juneau, who roamed the streets, she was deaf and could not bark, but somehow knew when cruise ships were going to arrive, even if not on schedule. We after she died, they buried her under the dock in a coffin and errected a statue of her on the dock above her. Truely, one example of a dog being man's best friend. We then went to lunch ...

... do see the sun once in a while. A week ago we had one of the most beautiful days. I had a short top on and went to find a bench to sit on and read my book. I walked and walked and didn't find any single bench. Had to go all the way downtown to sit next to all these old cruiseship tourists, juhu! I went on to look for some trails and found the way to a beautiful nice creek that turned out to be Jason's and my favourite spot to skip stones. Most ...

... half month to get that money together but on the other hand I think we do have a great opportunity to earn some money here as we are well paid and get to keep all our tips. This will allow us to really take it easy at first when we get to Mexico and it's just for another 2,5 months that we will be here. I am actually quite in a **** mood when I get up so early but then things go well until I sit down and feel my legs. But again, I know I don't have to work and can take it ...
