May 28, 2013 Tuesday

Skagway  7am - 8:30pm.
Clear and high 11.5c 
We were trying to decide what to do:
4 hour tour including a Chilkoot trail walk and a 40 minute float on the Taiya River, or
5.5 hour jeep adventure into the Yukon.  We did neither. Bad decision now that I look back!

We went for a walk into the city of Skagway. Found an internet cafe that was packed with people.  Paid the $2.50 for 1/2 hour and sat outside in the sun until the time ran out. Internet on the ship is crazy expensive and very slow.  Not worth it.  I will finish blogging when I get home. 


Skagway was crowded with all the people from the 4 cruise ships.  

The exact site and campground where we were 5 years ago.  

Took this train ride on our previous trip as well.
Back on our private balcony at 1 o'clock with a 'drinky'.  Much better than the crowds!

Our 5:30 lovely dinner companions.
Marcel, Alida, Yope (aka Mark Twain), Adrianna, Gary & Fermina. 

Star Princess cruise ship.  Looks identical to ours. 

Bye bye Skagway 

Into the sunset following the 'Star Princess' to Juneau.
We did hit the hot spots on ship again, but without the camera.
What we did, I couldn't tell you. Don't remember without pictures. lol.
Goodnight all.
