The ice bergs from Sawyer Glacier float all the
way out to the mouth of the Tracy Arm fjord.
Gorgeous colors in the
ice. | | |

After leaving Tracy Arm the ship headed for
Juneau where we had the afternoon to see the
town.
We took a tram up "Mt. Roberts" which looms
above Juneau. We had eagles' eye views of the
town, the cruise ships in the harbor and the
mountains above and around
us. | | |

Karen spotted mountain goats on the mountain
behind us in this picture. Lots of gold came out
of these mountains
too. | | |
 |
|
So many cruise ships visit these Alaskan ports,
they have to play "musical chairs." When we
arrived in Juneau, our ship anchored out in the
harbor and we took tenders (aka the lifeboats)
into the dock. Later in the day, one ship left and
they pushed the "Sapphire Princess" into that
spot. | | |
