Rare BennyBrun Posted August 30, 2022 Author #232 Share Posted August 30, 2022 A little family laughter… maybe because it’s the family show … I didn’t find him to be particularly funny… a chuckle here and there but the jokes he told have been told by others before him with a better set up but still a nice night out… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BennyBrun Posted August 30, 2022 Author #233 Share Posted August 30, 2022 They are doing SIX again so I went back to the Bliss Theater after the comedy … still amazing … two of the six queens are new … terrific singers ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muckyduckway Posted August 30, 2022 #234 Share Posted August 30, 2022 That looked like a lovely relaxing day. Do you know the distance you walked? No point in asking how long it took because I suspect you walk a lot faster than us! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogladyrider Posted August 30, 2022 #235 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Sitka looks like my kind of place. Two visits to Alaska never been there, adding it to future travel list! Great pictures! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too bad but time consuming but you will need the QR code to board the ship so got to get that done. Don’t want to struggle with the spotty service at the terminal to upload and download documents! When completing the ArriveCAN forms, did you have to upload proof of your negative Covid test in the app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sure the distance… it didn’t seem that far but the whole trip took about 2 hours ( walking to the park and back to the visitor center) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitka and Skagway are both National Historical Parks, very special places preserved for us. My mind is still back strolling the forest yesterday, it looked so beautiful and peaceful. To my Florida eyes, AK weather appealing too; my phone says current feels like temp here is 102. In Juneau I remember seeing bald eagles everywhere -- soaring above, on the ground at waters edge seeking food, sitting on overhead wires watching the world go by, everywhere. Maybe the eagles like hanging out with all those politicians, IDK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only need to see it once! Like the Raptor Center ! Once is enough! Hi! 1st time to Alaska, would you recommend the raptor and bear "zoo" or save the money and walk around on our own? We have the Otter, Raptor and Bear tour booked, is it worth it? Thanks! Btw: loving the cruise review!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are talking about Sitka my preference is to do the city on my own part nature part city feel but if you really want to see wild life … like it’s your passion not because of FOMO then you should do the tour. I just wasn’t a fan of the zoo type of setting at the fortress of the bears and the zoo like setting at the Raptor center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BennyBrun Posted August 30, 2022 Author #247 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Juneau Tram… if you buy it at the station it is $33.00 all day … remember that excursion credit … you have to do the math to see which is better … you can always split it up 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
