Today it only rained a little bit.  Yay!

Today they gave us rain boots to wear.  Double Yay! 

Today our canoes had motors and the paddles were mostly walking sticks.  Woo-hoo!

We had an early morning.  Even earlier since not all of our devices are acknowledging the time change.

We rode a medium sized boat for over an hour to get to the middle of nowhere. Then we got on a very vintage bus to get to our rain and boating gear via a bumpy logging road.  Then we had a short hike through the woods to the water.  Boarded our 10-person canoe and travelled a short section of a river.  Walked across a little island to the lake.  Boarded a different 10-person canoe to get close to a glacier. 

Explored the area at the base of the glacier, collecting rocks and photos.

Explored the town and got back on the ship well in time to see the Iditarod puppies presentation.

Favorite excursion so far.  Also the most expensive, LOL!
