JUNE 19, 2007:
JUNEAU, ALASKA
The Sapphire Princess was securely moored at the South Franklin Dock in Juneau by 8:03am Tuesday.
My first shore excersion of the day was with Temsco Helicopters.
It was a beautiful day for flying and the sights were incredible.
Our first landing was on Gilkey Glacier.
After about fifteen minutes on Gilkey Glacier, Dave, our pilot, flew us off to our next glacier.
The second glacier we landed on was Herbert Glacier.
After several minutes on Herbert Glacier it was back into the helicopter for our return to Juneau.
I had just enough time to ride the Mount Roberts Tramway before my next shore excersion.
There were fantastic views of Juneau from the top of Mount Roberts.
Next it was off to Auke Bay for a three hour whale watching cruise.
We saw several humpback whales including a mother and her calf.
In addition to the whales we also saw seals and bald eagles.
Next it was off to Mendenhall Glacier.
After leaving Mendenhall Glacier I took a walk through downtown Juneau before returning to the ship.
A fantastic day came to an end as the sun set on Juneau and we sailed away.
