Alaksa!! Part 3.


Wednesday was our first port! We stopped in Juneau, and had an awesome day. Kyle and Masen started out first thing with a hike up the mountain that stood right at the backdrop of town. 






They were back by 9 and the three of us headed to our excursion that day- a helicopter ride up Mendenhall Glacier to the dog sled camp. Wow, it was so cool flying above that gorgeous glacier. We ended up in super deep snow, but it was still so nice out that we only wore light jackets (or in Kyle’s case- a t shirt). We rode a dog sled pulled by about 15 dogs, and afterwards we got to hold the puppies… I was dying. They were so cute. Then we rode the helicopter back down to town. It was a crazy fun experience!!









After we were done dog sledding, we walked around the darling town of Juneau and did some shopping/souvenir hunting! Kyle also bought me my birthday present in Juneau… a gorgeous tanzanite necklace that I am in love with. J 






Back on the boat, we had dinner and then we watched the most gorgeous sunset any of us had ever seen. Kyle was dying and got so many amazing photos. These are only a couple of them!
