Fortress of the Bear was work the trip. We took a taxi and setup got pickup later. The totem pole national historic site is a great walk. The museum was interesting. We had seen the raptor center, Russian dancing and St Michaels last year. If you like dancing the dancing was interesting if not skip it. The raptor center was great and meeting the ambassador eagles was fun. Since my father was Russian Orthodox seeing St Michaels brought back memories of going too Easter and Christmas services with him.

In Sitka we took an ocean raft (Zodiak Boat) with a guide to explore a volcanic island and abundant sea life. Great experience especially since we saw many Humpback Whales and got within twenty feet of one pod. Also otters, sea birds, fish and a really fun boat ride..... Had a great time walking around town after our excursion and learned about the history and importance of Sitka from the acquisition from Russia and becoming the 49th state.

We went on our own into town, which has lots of interesting things to see, historic buildings, and a small but outstanding Native American museum. There is an interesting Russian church but it is open to the public only occasionally. We took a boat excursion and saw all the desired creatures: otters, sea lions, harbor seals and whales; there is room for improvement in the quality of the boat tour narration.

We created our own excursion by renting bikes, riding out to the Fortress of the Bear (moderate ride), finding Grandma Tillie’s cupcakes (amazing), lunching at Mean Queen (better food than on the ship), and eating peanut butter cream pie from the restaurant at the airport. This was our best day.
