We arrived in Juneau late morning and headed up to the Mendenhall Glacier. Strangely shaped icebergs float below the glacier. Cruise ships dock alongside the renovated historic district where everyone is selling something, from zillions of gem shops to Juneau Gelato. We sat outside and smashed a Dungeness crab for lunch. Then we drove up to the ruins of a gold mine. Our small ferry to Glacier Bay was harder to find than the platform for Harry Potter's train; however, once located, we watched a family of bald eagles who owned a tree above the ferry slip and chatted with fellow travelers.
