"Juneau" Alaska is pretty?

The next port was Juneau where we took a morning helicopter ride thru the Juneau icefields and landed on a glacier where we met a team of 80 Alaskan huskies. Because our group was only us and 1 other couple, each couple got to have our own team of dogs. It was truly an awesome experience to be pulled through the mountains with a team of dogs. While it was nearly 80 up on the glacier, they had just gotten nearly 2 feet of fresh snow and the dogs looked tired pulling us!

It was by far Dave and I's favorite excursion of the trip! After grabbing lunch at the famous Red Dog Saloon, we took a bus to the Mendenhall glacier where we did a few hikes and got to touch our first pieces of glacier ice. After the long day in port, we deserved the wonderful 4-course meal that awaited for us back on ship.
