Alaska Day 5: Skagway- 4th of July!

This post is about Day 5 of our Alaska trip!

On Day 5 we arrived in Skagway in the early morning

and didn't have any excursions until later in the day so we 

hung out on the ship all morning. This was a rough morning

for all of the guys in our family because they hit the 

bar/casino a little too hard the night before. 

So they relaxed in the pool/hot tub in the 

morning to 'detox' a bit. Then we ate lunch and headed

out to our excursion to go dog mushing in the mountains 

of skagway! This was also the 4th of July so there was a 4th of 

July parade on the streets of Skagway and lots of other fun

things going on. We also had a fun 4th of July themed dinner

on the ship that night!

Here's some pictures:

 Gorgeous views while traveling to go dog mushing!

 The white one was my favorite- Goliath!

 He was telling us 'let's go'!

 Loved them!

 This was a lookout post from up on the mountain where we mushed.

Amazing views.

 Loved this baby! I was trying to figure out how to get him through

the scanner to get back on the ship and go home with me!

 Love the Irises! This would make a great desktop wallpaper :)

 Like I said.. rough night = morning in the heated pool to sweat it off.

 This is an old brothel in Skagway!

The one thing I learned in Alaska was they definitely had

at least one old brothel in each town we visited. 

And there were old shacks in the mountains they called

"cribs" and you can only imagine what went on in those.

 I took full advantage of the drink of the day everyday!

 Happy 4th of July!

Day 6 of the Alaska trip coming soon! I know by now 

you are all dying to vacation here sometime soon. It is amazing!
