Juneau: Cruising the inside passage Pt 2
Our first port of call on the Alaska cruise is Juneau, capital of Alaska, geographically the largest city in the US and the first town to be founded due to the gold rush. Historical yet cosmopolitan, Juneau has great shopping and quality restaurants. After riding through town, we're off to view our first glacier, the awesome Mendenhall, one of the few you can drive to. We then experience an unforgetable wildlife cruise, encountering diving Humpback whales,close up, Stellar Sea Lions basking on a bellbuoy, harbour seals poping up like corks from the sea.
