Sunday! We arrived in Ketchikan, Alaska!

What excitement getting off the ferry after two days traveling the Inside Passage and just seeing the occasional boat, birds, whales, dolphins and pristine scenery! Our first sights where 4 large cruise ships in a commercial port! We headed out immediately for a bike ride south of town to see native totem poles, the coast, the salmon run and bald eagles! Then, off for a kayak trip around the waterfront and across the channel! We saw starfish
hanging out waiting for the tide to come in! Next, off to Settlers park for a nature hike along a beautiful waterfall! More totem poles and a terrific salmon dinner! Very full day and back on the Taku Ferry to Petersburg!
