Saturday, July 16,
2022: The
ship pulled in to Icy Straight Point, along the Alaskan coast.
Paula
and Mark decided to go the top of the mountain in cable cars.
|
 |
They learned
there are bears about so they made a quick exit.
|
 |
The zip line was
in operation that day so down they went.
|
 |
Quite a ride.
|
 |
Back at the harbor, they
found this dolphin statue looking toward the mountains.
|
 |
  |
The
Hoonah
Canery operated here for 87 years, ending in 1999. A museum
tells the story.
|
 |
This old boat used to
ply the waters of Icy Straight, but its sailing days are over.
|
 |
Paula discovered this
star fish.
|
 |
And all of these.
|
 |
  |
There is a lot of Eskimo heritage
there.
|
 |
Everyone was treated to
tribal dancing.
|
 |
Then it was off to a
trail in the tall trees.
|
 |
A fire felt warm by the
waters.
|
 |
Paula headed back to the
ship to work on a jigsaw puzzle.
|
 |
|
1960s music was well
done that night. |
Another
day on the cruise. Mark
