Dog Tired, but Still Touring

We returned from our morning adventure with scarcely an hour to change for our afternoon excursion. Boarding a helicopter, we flew over the Juneau Ice Fields of the Tongass Natl Forest and viewed 4 of the glaciers it feeds. After landing on the last, we were treated to a dogsled tour where Geri/I each took turns riding the sled. Over 200 dogs summer on the glacier, many of whom had participated in this winter's Iditerod race from Anchorage to Nome.






Back aboard the Mariner for dinner, after which Geri relaxed while I wandered Juneau for an hour. Still wired from our day, I joined a few passengers on the Observation Deck to watch as we sailed away at 11pm.

Tomorrow - Skagway.
