14 July Tuesday

Day at Sea. Leisurely morning with great scenery along the way. Mid-morning there was a lecture on how and where to shop along the cruise route. We attended, but it was really a repeat performance of the lecture we had on the canal trip. All the major outlets are in Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway for the summer tourists. The prices are the same as in the Carribean, but you don’t have to pay duty.

The evening meal was the first formal dining of the trip. As usual the food was outstanding and the ambiance was great.
