Our arrival in Ketchikan was greeted by a cold hard rain. And I woke up with a bad cold. But we were bound and determined to continue with out excursion. After suiting up in rain gear we hopped on a little boat to go to an island where we would be hiking. Along the way we suddenly stopped and waited for a whale feeding that was about to happen. I quickly got my camera and snapped several shots and watched my camera get wet. So I had to keep my camera put away the rest of the excursion because of the rain so that’s it for pictures! I may have snapped a few with my point and shoot but I still have to look through those to see what I got. Our last stop was in Victoria, B.C. where we enjoyed the evening walking around the beautiful city before heading to Seattle that night.
I can’t wait to go another cruise or to get back to Alaska!

Back on the ship! We had to detour during our cruising day because of a terrible storm that was heading our way. So instead of seeing a glacier up close we enjoyed a day cruising to see fjords. And then we saw the most amazing rainbow!
We stopped in Sitka for another excursion but unfortunately I don’t have any pictures from that one because I went dry snorkeling. Yes, dry snorkeling. I didn’t know what it was either but it’s basically snorkeling while wearing a suit that allows you to wear your clothes underneath. It was my first snorkeling experience of any kind and it’s definitley something I would do again. I got to see tiny jellyfish, a school of fish, a starfish, and some other things I can’t remember.
Coming up next: a whale feeding in Ketchikan!
