You Know Where’s Juneau

Alaska Trip Journal Entry 5

The first spot of civilization that resembled the cities I’m used to seeing; space a commodity and every building tightly packed. Roads laid out in a seemingly haphazard way, yes, Juneau was stiffling but still fun to wander through.

Mendenhall GlacierWe took a bus ride to Mendenhall Glacier. It was an alright ride, but what made it pretty good was the amount of sightings of bald eagles we saw on the way to the glacier. The glacier itself was a pretty nice sight, but what accentuated it was a waterfall nearby. Unfortunately we were pressed for time and couldn’t make the trek closer as some folks were doing. Instead, we hung around the main viewing area and took a couple of photos.

Once we got back to Juneau, it was a frantic rush to do some shopping. There were two bookshops that, if I had more time, would have loved to peruse their selection. Old books and such… Ah well.
