No excursion. We walked around the town and especially enjoyed Creek Street.

Juneau, Alaska

LOVED the whale watch and the Mendenhall Glacier!

SCENIC GLACIER CRUISING

Unfortunately, the floating ice prevented us from seeing the glacier. I was pretty bummed about it.

Skagway, Alaska

LOVED the mush camp and sled dog ride! Of course, cuddling with the puppies was the best!

Victoria, British Columbia

Beautiful city! Butchart Gardens are spectacular!!

So easy to leave our luggage outside of the room the night before and have it appear at our home airport when we arrived. This FREE service is awesome👏
