We opted to rent a car from Alaska Adventures and go out on our own this day. We encountered down pours but it was for approximately 15 minutes at a time with breaks of a couple of hours between them. We stopped at Mendenhal Glacier. Gorgeous! We were disappointed as we thought we were going to be able to walk the glacier and found we had gathered some erroneous information. The hike to do that would be from the other side of the glacier and would take 6 - 8 hours. We didn't have the time for that. We did hike down to Nugget Falls and thoroughly enjoyed all the scenery from there. So much beauty in one location. We stopped at Alaskan Brewing and grabbed a pint as well as a couple to bring home with us. Finally, we stopped downtown and hit up the local "must do" restaurant, The Red Dog Saloon. It is definitely a "kitchy" kind of location, but fun none the less. The waitress are dressed as long ago western saloon girls. A live country singer is on the mic and saw dust upon the floor. For being a "tourist" spot, the food wasn't bad at all. We had a good day in Juneau.

Taking a shuttle to the Mendenhaul Glacier was really worth it. Walk alongside the creek from the parking lot to see bears. Glacier was beautiful. Also walked to the waterfalls. Nice easy half hour trek (if that). Had a beer at the Red Dog Saloon which is an opportunity to feel like you are back in a saloon in the gold rush days. Lots of fun - waitresses dressed in era costumes, keyboard playing lively era tunes, sawdust on the floor - great fun

Loved Juneau, we had fish and chips for lunch then took Mount Roberts Tramway and did the hiking trail at the top. My kids enjoyed watching the totem pole artists carving area. Very scenic port as we cruised into our berth (portside balcony). We spotted many bald eagles.
