It rains in Icy Straight. A lot as a matter of fact. I hadn’t planned on getting off the ship at all. Then George sent me a txt stating that the one bar/lounge/restaurant had free WiFi. Stood in line, boarded the crowded lifeboat (I did mention that this was a tender port didn’t I?) and got to shore.Hiked in the rain out along the slippery boardwalk to the end of the line at Icy Point Landing Restaurant. There was no Wifi.
As a result, you will just have to enjoy photos uploaded a bit late. And yes, there are whales.
Looking at all your glorious pictures, I finally understand a little better why a friend of mine from California wanted to pack up and move to Alaska of all places. I still don’t know if he visited when it wasn’t summer.
