National Alaska Day is June 28, so here are some photos from an Alaska Cruise I took in September 2017 with my sister, Gail, and friends. I’m standing on a dock in Ketchikan, Alaska, with its harbor in the background. Check out the cruise ship in my sunglasses! Alaska is a spectacular place to visit! Happy Alaska Day!

Flowers bloomed in the quaint town of Juneau, Alaska, on a gloomy September day! But gloom and rain didn’t stop us from shopping on Juneau’s Main Street!

I’m back on our cruise ship and ready for more Alaska-size adventures as we move along Alaska’s Inside Passage. Our September 2017 Alaska Cruise fulfilled all our expectations!  Thank you, Alaska, for blue skies, beautiful scenery, and friendly folks! We love you, Alaska!♥️
