2016 aug 3 Skagway Alaska
Wednesday…. we pulled into Skagway about 6 am. It is raining…for the first time on this trip. Ah yes…memories of Adak come flooding back…gray dreary days…back in 1973 and 74...when we lived in the Aleutian Islands. Skagway does have trees…The same ships we saw yesterday are in port here in Skagway.
We had breakfast at O’sheehans…. then headed ashore. We got on a bus that took us to Fraser British Columbia. We then boarded the White pass railway back to Skagway. Upon arrival to Skagway we got back on the bus and went to liarsville…where we had a baked salmon lunch….and a show…and panned for gold. (we actually skipped the panning for gold…. Then we got back on the bus to the red onion saloon and brothel. We took a tour of the brothel. We then walked back to the ship.
We saw two otters but no bears….and that’s still on my wish list. I am not sorry we did this today but once is enough.
We had dinner at Indigo…we had escargot and beef chateaubriand. Not crazy about this restaurant.
