DAY SIX of Alaska Cruise/Trip (Tuesday September 16th).
We had breakfast at the Boticelli and then returned to our room to get ready for KETCHIKAN and then we went down to the fourth floor to disembark the ship. I think we took a "tender boat" from the ship to the dock. We walked around downtown Ketchikan for a bit and then returned to the port and waited a bit for our trolley to arrive for our tour. The tour guide was VERY good!. But she only took us to ONE interesting place THE GOLD RUSH CEMETERY. She dropped us off near Creek Street, which was horribly busy. We did not have time for lunch before going to the Lumber Jack show. After it was over, we headed back to the ship, planning to board BUT we found out that our stop in Juneau was cancelled and because of that we were given more time in Ketchikan. Davie returned to the ship but Peggy and I decided to take advantage of the extra time. We returned to downtown and found CRABBY CRAB, a small restaurant, where we had lunch. We split a fish and chips meal.
We went to a couple of jewelry stores. Peg bought some Tanzanite earrings. We returned to Creek Street, hoping to see the FISH LADDER. We found it. We could see the occasional salmon jumping out of the water as they swam upstream. Then we returned to the ship and met up with David at the MICHAELANGELO. I was not very hungry.so I had an appetizer and a plate of root vegetables. I was a kind of tired so I decided to skip going to the show, Peg and David went and they really enjoyed it.
