I'm not in Utah anymore. I hear it rains everyday in Ketchikan, Alaska |
Lovely Eskimo nativity set made in Japan! Many souvenirs were from China! |
Glad it's not a real bear, though we were told they roam around town. |
That's James in town standing by a totem. |
Happy he's not real! |
Exploring the SE Alaska Discovery Center by the National Park Service |
Model of a fishing boat, still an important part of Alaska's economy. |
Stunning photo of Alaskan landscape in the museum. |
Grand daughter Emilee loved this sunset on fishing boat photo! |
Fascinating history of how this area was settled and why. |
I was fascinated by the native peoples and their traditions and history. |
We are just exploring that small area of Alaska on the right bottom. |
Twin sisters in Alaska while Dad and bro went fishing! |
Would have loved to purchase one of these native baskets but they were expensive. |
More fascinating art, there were also diamonds and furs for sale. |
I would also love one of those baskets.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip, Lin....and watch out for those bears!
ReplyDeleteI realized how little I had seen of Alaska by just hitting ports on the fringe of what is still a vast, wild place.
ReplyDeleteToo bad there is so much import tourist stuff. But then the "real" treasures are costly.
I love the photos of you with the family
