3 Visits to Juneau




Stayed at Auke Bay RV Park and went on 2 trips from here. First, flew to to Glacier Bay Park Lodge, where we could not take Mollie; then to Sitka and back on the ferry. Mollie spent 3 nights at the plush Pet Nanny's Place, doggie camp, where they sang campfire songs and even took her on a shopping expedition! Made our 4th visit to Gold Creek Salmon Bake, where we had great food, AYCE, and good entertainment. We shopped for T-shirts at Alaska Shirt Company and packed them up & sent them home to be there when we get back. And poor Annabel checked every grocery in town for diet teas for Pat. With success! We ate a good lunch at Silver Bow Cafe and Bakery, a hippie beer & coffeeshop place downtown. Drove to Mendenhall Glacier, checked out the glacier and the icebergs in the Mendenhall River. Juneau has the distinction of being the only town with a glacier in the city limits. The ferry actually comes & goes from Auke Bay, a small town north of Juneau. Every day that we came downtown, there were 4 cruise ships docked there.
