Juneau to Taku Harbor 20 miles 4 hours
We started up the engines at 9:15 AM to head out. We cruised past Juneau and 5 cruise ships are in dock this morning. I think this almost doubles the population of Juneau. Ann & Heather sat on the bow for most of the trip in the 36 degree weather. They bundled up and looked quite silly. Once we got here, we saw spots of sun but still very overcast for the most part. As we sat here chatting we saw an iceberg float into the bay we were in. That is pretty unusual since we are a bit North of the glaciers, and we weren’t expecting to see any icebergs until tomorrow. We put the dinghy down and went over to it to take photos and touch it. It was Ann’s first iceberg encounter. We then BBQ’d fresh salmon they we were given by a local fisherman the other day. Hopefully we catch some whales and icebergs along the way.
