Saying for the day: Life is like a coin, you can spend it on anything, but you can only spend it once.
Off to Skagway today and a new set of adventures! Lakes and more lakes, yesterday and today and some more Barrow's Goldeneye Ducks. And lots of waterfalls. U.S. Customs at 10:50 a.m. That went well, the first chatty Customs Agent we've had. Now back to the 4 hr. time difference.
We have a terrific site, right in the Marina; we have a view of cruise ships - 3 here right now, as well as trains, mountains, helicopters, and ferries. We are truly surprised at this lovely, little town and it's so clean and full of flowers and bushes in bloom.
We had some lunch and then walked into the town of Skagway. It's a quaint, old Alaska frontier looking town. Boards walks, and painted wood fronts to all of the stores. We had to wait for a steam locomotive and it's cars to get through the downtown.
Get ready for our trip to Juneau tomorrow.
Arrive Skagway, AK, Pullen RV Park, at 11:35 a.m.
Staying 4 nights

June Chamberlin Wow, nice to come home to! Reminds me of your view in Newport, without the mountains, of course.
John Chess Have you all seen any Northern Lights?
June Chamberlin Love all the pictures of this quaint town! If it weren't so cold, and so far away, I'd live there!
Bill I thought it was to clear moose off the tracks.
Bill Must take you back in time with steam engines and the old style buildings.
June Chamberlin THAT's how I want to see Alaska!
