Juneau - the awesome Mendenhall glacier, discoveries on the shore at low tide, a lovely museum, eagle encounters ( what a thrill to see an eagle diving on a sea otter in a failed attempt to steal the otter’s fish!) and a serendipitous folk festival which we enjoyed with some great people we met en route: Jim, a Juneau artist who provided helpful suggestions for our time there and introduced us to halibut burritos; Bill and Betty, professionals from Fairbanks who contra dance and play hot flute and fiddle; and Morgan Fawcett, a native Alaskan wood flute player who performs to raise money for children effected by fetal alcohol syndrome as he was.
This post includes another sampling of photo impressions from Juneau.

Hi you guys!
Sorry we haven't been keeping closer tabs on ya'll. We got to thinking about ya'll and eagerly checked your North to Alaska blog. We always enjoy the pics (magnificent) and comments.
We'll try to keep in touch more regularly.
