Thursday, July 19
After an unscheduled repair stop in Ketchikan, we are under way three hours late. That's OK because it was during early morning hours. we now have more daylight hours to watch the mountains and look for whales. We saw a few spouts and a fin or two but no breaches. The mountains go on forever!
Through the Wrangell Narrows, the passage gets tighter, maybe down to 100 yards wide;a few small houses on either side with boat docks and solar panels.
Our next stop is Petersburg, a pretty good sized town with lots of fishing boats.
After Petersburg, the passage opens up again and the mountains get even bigger.
We arrived late in Juneau and spent the night at the Alaska Hotel downtown, a funky old hotel with a loud band downstairs. They quit around one a.m. And we got some some sleep.
