As you can see, it was still drizzly, so we did not spend as much time here as I would have liked.

On our walk we experienced why much of Alaska is considered to be a temperate rainforest.  The air was so moist even though it was cool.

We started walking back to the ship since it was almost time for dinner.

After dinner, we returned to a towel monkey.  I took k and n to the gift shop where they each bought a Captain Mickey Tsum Tsum.  Meanwhile, D went to guest services to reserve a placeholder for a future cruise!

The evening entertainment was a magic show by David Gatti.  He put on a good show, and made us wonder, “How did he do that??”

Our Alaska stops were now officially over, and we were headed back to Canada.
