Went into town and saw the eagles. The new set up made me feel disconnected from the town and the chairlift was not working. Also saddened to see the forest that was so beautiful destroyed by the rope course.

rented a car. Enjoyed visiting the Glacier but was disappointed that the resturant we always eat at was already closed for the winter.

Ketchikan was great but the new port that Norwegian has bought and set up is a disappointment. Used to port at Ketchikan and now you have to ride a bus for about 30 minutes to get to town. Shame on Norwegian. It's all about money I guess.
