Day 30 – Sunday, August 28 2005
On board the ferry
On board the ferry
After waking up several times throughout the night, we go up about 5:30 AM and made some coffee in our little traveling electric coffee pot. (It’s come in handy many times) As it got daylight we could see whales jumping outside our porthole window. For some reason we just watched from the window instead of going out on the deck where we could have had a much better show. We were told that there were hundreds of whales around the ship that morning. Most of the day was spent watching the beautiful scenery and talking to a very interesting man from Minnesota. After lunch in the cafeteria, that had pretty good food, we watched as the pilot navigated his way through the Wrangell Narrows between Petersburg and Wrangell. We were lucky to have such a beautiful day, calm waters and no rain. If you want to see the Inside Passage but don’t want to spend a lot of money on a cruise, take the ferry, it’s great.
