ALASKA

Our July, 2000 cruise to Alaska
I forgot to take my sunglasses off after the long bus ride
Moving from the Seattle-Vancouver bus to the ship
This helicopter flight was fun
Our ship, the MS Volendam, seen from a helicopter

The helicopter landed on top of this glacier
This hole is about three feet around, with water rushing through it
A hole in the glacier, showing the deep blue color of the ice
This picture is similar to the Greece and the Tahiti pictures
Kay shopping
They had pictures of this machine in operation
A snowplow locomotive
This train climbed over 2100 feet to the pass
We rode the White Pass Railroad up the trail where the gold stampeders went in the 1890's
Florida isn't the only place with bugs
This mosquito on the train window (Alaska) shows the macro capability of my camera

A sign in Ketchican
No, she is just a tour guide
Note the dollars in her garters
A most impressive sight and sound
A glacier calving. See the splash just left of center.
We just looked at this. No tasting.
One night the chefs displayed fancy desserts and ice sculptures

We saw these seals on a nature raft trip
She did make the catch
At Pike's Market in Seattle, a fishmarket clerk tossing a salmon to the lady
