Alaska!

We are in Juneau, Alaska!! I'm sitting at the Imperial Saloon with Jeremy as we upload pictures and enjoy the most breathtaking views of snow capped mountains. It's surprisingly sunny and warm here though. Juneau reminds me so much of my hometown Bend, Oregon so I LOVE it. And guess what family? Their most popular beer here is the Deschutes Brewery Mirror Pond Ale which they have on draft!!! (That's a beer from the local Bend brewery). I don't like beer but if I did I would be pretty excited.

So...check facebook and picassa today because there will be a lot of new pictures! I have to say, I am so happy to be back in the good ole' US of A. I love traveling but I really don't think I could live in another country. Even though I can see that Alaska is like none of the other states, I still had a feeling of relief as I stepped off the boat into America.

Tonight we are eating dinner at the world famous Tracy's Crab Shack. Ironically, after my last blog, "The Deadliest Catch" drops crabs here :) It's the most famous crab shack in Alaska so I'm pretty excited!

So while we're in Alaska, I can call and text with my regular cell plan. However, as soon as we leave port and sail back into the ocean, I'll have to put my phone on Airplane mode so we don't pay any roaming charges. I'll send our weekly schedule with the times we're in port so you know when to call and text :)

Love you all so much!!
