This old steam engine was on the dock right across from the ship when we woke up in port.
Skagway reminded us of an old mining town. It only had a few blocks in town and we had to walk a ways from the pier to get there.
This is one of the main streets in Skagway. They had all the usual jewelry shops as in the other ports but they also had some local shopping that was fun.
Hey they even had a brothel! Limo Man is pointing up to some of the "ladies". No Limo Man you can't go upstairs.....
Skagway's idea of a limousine.
Wow look at the totems! Oh wait, is that Limo Man in there?
A shot of the ship on the way into town.
We took a bus ride about 30 miles out of town to a mushing camp. It was really warm that day and the poor dogs had their tongues a waggin'. We took a ride on one of these sleds. It was pretty fun.
The next iditarod champion!
Limo Man and Homer, new BFF's.
These dogs were so bored that they were just hanging out. Some on top of their huts and some not. It was so funny to see.
This is the meadow below the mushing camp. It was beautiful and there were streams running through it. The wildflowers were really beautiful and Limo Man even brought home some Alaskan rocks.
This skull was pretty eerie. The names on the rocks were all cruise line captains and the dates of their retirements. Okay, there were some other names tagged that weren't captains too. It's amazing how someone could get up there!
The steam engine coming in to port and the tagged rocks. This shot was taken from our balcony.
