This entry comes about two months late…but I’m backdating it since I wanted all my entries in chronological order. Hehe. So Boston – was lots of fun. It was kind of another spur of the moment trip. I actually bought my flight the same day I bought my flight to NYC. Might as well take advantage of sale prices right? LOL. Anyway, it had been a couple years since I’ve been to the city, so it was fun to explore…

Juneau was our next port of call in Alaska. Since we had made arrangements for a helicopter tour at noon, it meant we had plenty of time to go exploring the town in the morning. After getting off the ship, we followed the path towards the city centre. The first thing we saw was the Mount Roberts Tramway. We didn’t actually take the tram up the mountain, but it did look impressive as we watched it disappear at the top….
