INSIDE PASSAGE of ALASKA
We have seen some of the most gorgeous sunsets and rainbows in Alaska !! And most of it happens at 10 to 11 pm at night!!
There has also been some speculator wildlife showing. Fellow residents caught this one off the aft deck of ship in Tracy Arm area.
Lots of glaciers, icebergs, waterfalls and majestic mountains too! And can't forget the napping, sunning seals!
Thursday, October 23rd we arrived in the Port of Bitung, Indonesia to huge fan fare despite the pouring rain. Turns out we were the first cruise ship to visit this Port in a long time!
WOW!!! PALAU is the tropical Paradise I have been dreaming about! This is trip just reached a new level of OMG!!
Got to love a place that sells shirts saying " Where the heck is Yap? " Colonia ( population 3,100 ) is the Capital and Harbor town of Yap State ( population 11,600 ) one of four states in the Federated States of Micronesia. We are in the Pacific Ocean or Philippine Sea just north of the equator, Papua New Guinea and Australia.
