Alaska Cruise: Ketchikan


Our first port of the cruise was Ketchikan.  I really liked this small town, which is the Salmon Capital of the World - or so they claim.

We did some shopping here, despite a few sprinkles.  Ketchikan, it turns out, is the rainiest city in America, averaging 16 feet a year!

 Next, we headed to our seaplane tour of Misty Fjords National Monument.  Eek!  I was still apprehensive.
