I Love To Travel Anywhere, Any Time

ALASKA

You have to see it at least once. There is no other place like Alaska. Alaska had been on my bucket list for years. I decided to book a cruise on Holland America and just go. Out of the blue, a friend (who gambles) decided to go with me. We were upgraded to the Neptune Suite on the Eurodam-first class treatment. Our suite had a full verandah, dressing area, and living room. We had our own private lounge with free laundry, champagne, chocolates etc.

I am not a professional photographer so forgive the quality of the pics. We visited Seattle, Glacier Bay, Juneau, Sitka, Ketchikan and Victoria.

Glacier Bay-Mendenhall Glacier


Whales in Sitka


Whorehouse in Ketchikan



Eagles and Bears in Sitka


Butchart Gardens in Victoria-this was one of my favorite places in the whole trip.

@mountainman1234 did you hear the story about the Butcharts and how they missed the Titanic???
mountainman1234 · 70-79, M
No but it is a good thing they did or there would be a very large hole in the round where the sub garden is ,,,

@mountainman1234 apparently they were scheduled to return from europe onthe Titantic but he collected I think Ducks. he made a side journey to get ducks in Germany and missed going on the titantic
