One of the more incredible sights in Alaska are the glaciers. Just
outside of
Juneau
is the Mendenhall Glacier. Gary is setting up his tripod
for some group shots. We all moved down on the rock for some great photos.
Jerry is not in this one because he took the photo. |
| After chilling our chins by the glacier we drove back to town and took
the Mount Roberts Tramway for some spectacular views. This was taken on
the nature trail that continues up the mountain. |

Gary and Jerry pose next to a totem carving in a live tree. Still on
the nature trail, Jerry took the second photo of me looking out over the
Gastineau Channel. We headed down to the tourist center, had a leisurely
lunch and then took the tram back down. |
| We wanted some photos of
Juneau
from the other side of the Gastineau
Channel, so several of us drove to the other side. Here are the photographers
at work. |

The left photo I took of
Juneau
from this same vantage point. Jerry
took the right photo. It shows the Mount Roberts Tramway. |
| Later in the evening, we headed out for dinner. The last thing we expected
to see on the streets in Alaska (or perhaps ANYWHERE) were belly
dancers on the town square. |

In the left photo taken by Jerry I look rather toasted as we wait in the "Wings"
restaurant for dinner seating. If you think I look bad, you should have
seen Dennis! The Alaska "Frontier" ale was the best brew
we found on this trip. Mike took the second photo. Dennis is not here because
he was at the pool tables. |
We spent one more night in the hotel.
