This is our second cruise. I packed light in the camera dept. We just wanted to enjoy the cruise.
The first stop is Ketchikan. We had planned to just walk around the dock area. Then we heard about a bear sighting the day before. Sign us up!!!
The tour was around Ketchikan in a regular van.

It was exciting to see the bear. It disappeared a few minutes after taking this shot.

Thanks for the kind words!!!

Hope you had a great trip. Should you ever make it up here again, let me know and I can take you around if you happen to come in on a day I have free time on (not working).

Thanks!!
If we come back, it will probably be a few years.
We were in the state 8 years ago for 3 weeks.
Had a very nice time!!

Pat, you did good. I still wish I stayed up there when I had the chance. Move from Ft. Lauderdale, FL to Anchorage in late December of '96. Had a great job and just did not stay. Missed the warm beaches and tan bodies.
