We went on a whale finding expedition in Juneau, Alaska. It was absolutely incredible! One of the rules of whale finding is that the boat is not allowed to come within 100 yards of the whale. Well, this group of whales kept circling around us and one even slapped it’s tail within 5 feet of our boat (I could have reached out and touched it)! Unfortunately, I had my zoom lens on and wasn’t able to catch it because it was so close. Since they came so close to us, we weren’t allowed to turn on our engines until they were at least 100 yards away. So, we sat there on the water watching these magical creatures swim around us in circles.

Outside of Skagway, Alaska we went on a glacier tour. I love this photo because it shows the grandeur and size of the glacier. If you notice from the way the ice looks, there’s actually a river underneath. The glacier on top (which stretches for miles) is melting. The water flows down underneath this ice bank which continually freezes and melts creating this river flowing effect in the formation.

Another Seattle Skyline; this one was taken from the cruise ship as we left the bay.
The Deck of the Wonder on Flickr.
This was taken on the first night of our cruise from Deck 4. I love the yellows that surround the ship including the chairs and escape boats on this deck. Modern life boats are required to be orange, but Disney knew that this color would throw off the entire look they were going for. So, before they were ready to scrap the entire project they received special permission from the government to paint the boats yellow to match Mickey Mouse.

Parliament on Flickr.
Parliament
This is the Parliament building in Victoria, Canada. It was raining like crazy towards sundown so I wasn’t able to get more than a single bracket of photos of the building. But, I like the way this came out. Our bus driver told me that each one of the lights represents a single jewel on the Queen’s crown. I’m not sure how accurate that is…but, she’s definitely a rich lady.
