Hello, Dolly

Yesterday we sailed to Glacier Bay and I will post some photos from that visit after I return home.

This morning we berthed in Ketchikan, our last port of call in Alaska and the 'salmon capital of the world'. Naturally, our first visit was to a fabled red light district where 'Dolly' ran a grand house and, of course, was a madam with a heart of gold.

Dolly's house bears the inscription it is 'where men and salmon swam up stream to spawn'.

Arriving at Ketchikan
There were two other cruise vessels berthed when we arrived and by lunchtime a total of five cruise vessels in the port.

We depart this evening and will be at sea all day tomorrow arriving in Vancouver on Wednesday morning. We fly home on Thursday night.
