Shadowmeboy's Alaskan Adventure on the Sun

[shadowmeboy]

 

We got an opportunity to learn more about dog mushing, and running the big races.

 

 

 

She talked about the supplies and equipment needed to do the Iditarod.

 

 

 

 

 

After she finished, we headed over to the puppy area.

 

 

 

 

Mush

 

 

 

 

Mom being protective!

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

 

These guys were three weeks old.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

 

One tired pup!

 

 

 

 

We put the three week old dogs back with mom and the two month old puppies were next.

 

 

No Susan. Canadian Authorities will not allow you to bring the puppy home as a Souvenir. Plus mom would be mad.

[shadowmeboy]

Here are some even older puppies.

 

 

 

 

Susan made 3 separate puppies fall sleep.

 

 

we loaded the bus and went back to Juneau.

 

 

 

We got dropped off at a very rainy downtown Juneau.

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you keep walking up this street, and go to the left, you can get to the State Capitol building.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, it was raining. It wasn't a heavy rain, just a light drizzle.

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, we made it! The Alaskan Fudge Company! Did I die and go to heaven?

 

 

Susan gives it two thumbs up! That means you should stop when you visit Juneau, they do have two locations.

 

 

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

 

Inside the Alaskan Fudge Company. 1 of each please!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Alaska Shirt Company. A great place to get the family back home the tshirt they didn't know they needed, for an inexpensive cost.

After dinner, we went to Comedian Jim McDonald's show.

 

 

 

We returned to the stateroom and found this guy.

 

 

 

 

Tomorrow was going to be a rough day, since it was the day of my Grandma's memorial service. We went to bed and let the ocean rock us to sleep.

Day 6 Daily

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

I started the day with VIP breakfast.

 

 

 

 

Steak, bacon, and eggs

 

 

French Toast

 

Susan had some heartburn issues the night before, and wasn't feeling up to having a big breakfast. She went up to Great outdoors and got some oatmeal.

 

I went to the Casino, turned 30 dollars into 140 dollars on the roulette wheel! Susan meanwhile was at the Spa. When i booked the cruise our travel agent gave us $50 in Spa credit. I told Susan I would match it. She then took 40 dollars of here own to do the spa raffle special.

 

 

 

Cruising towards Ketchikan

 

 

I stopped by and bugged the CruiseNext guys, they looked bored.

Getting close to Ketchikan

It was misty but heavy rain today.

 

 

 

 

Silversea's Silver Shadow was in berth 4

 

 

Here is Berth 3. The repairs from the Celebrity Infinity crash were well underway.

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

We were assigned Berth 2 today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

 

Joaquin, the Concierge, was waiting by the elevators when we walked down to Deck 5. He said that they would be ready to let passengers off in one minute. Once they said they were ready, he motioned us toward the exit. Thus, I was the first passenger off the boat with Susan right behind me in Ketchikan.

 

 

 

 

Ketchikan, Home of Liquid Sunshine!

 

 

Selfie time!

A very rainy Ketchikan

We both had the Seafood basket

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After lunch, we went to Creek Street.

Look a model Alaska railroad train.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[shadowmeboy]

 

 

 

We tried to go to the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center and it was closed today.

 

 

 

 

We bought a few things and brought them back to the stateroom. This was waiting when we arrived.

On our way back out, we got our port picture for Ketchikan.
