North to Alaska 2005 
Ok, I'm at Skagway - what do I do now?
The town is quite a walk from where the ships dock.  I suppose there were forms of transport - but we all just strolled into town (as I suppose the miners did in 1898).  I bought a book about the history.  I am wearing my coat in this photo - so it must have been cool - but this May/June weather was usually quite warm.

Hoonah local.  I did not actually get to meet this gentleman, as we had to take the boat back to the ship.  I really enjoyed the stories that our tour guide (local teacher on Summer holiday) and bus driver (local woman with 5 daughters)told us.  I particularly found the Raven/Eagle clan stories fascinating.
