Skagway, Alaska - Day 3

Bamboo / driftwood frontage

Day 3 - our first port stop is Skagway, Alaska.

Well what can we say.....jewellery shops galore!!!

Of course, Daryl had to find his fix with an old model A and a cab over.

The town itself was wooden boardwalks and looked like a set out of an old western movie, but was jewellery shop after jewellery shop with a few tourist shops in between - virtually all tied up with Princess or other cruise lines.

Found an old train parked up out the back as we wandered around town.

Picturesque and quaint......we eventually went a couple of blocks out , which was about the width of the town and found a pub where we had fish & chips for lunch - nice but highly expensive.   Lunch will be on the boat from now on.

Another custom Chev pick up - nicely done.
















We head back to our ship (above) for a break before heading back out again to see what else we can find - many have opted for train trips or other tours available but we have stayed to look around the towns themselves.














Waiting out a short down pour under a tree.

Back on the boat, we have another swim and steam before changing for dinner and finding a restaurant.















One of the many water falls we float past during dinner and as usual, we enjoy the view from the back of the boat before calling it a night.
