Born Free

We're still in Skagway and today we are totally free. Whoopee! Our group has left on a train trip to Skagway and we have the day to ourselves. We went to Skagway on our cruise in 1996 and also rode the train to Chilkoot Pass. While it is beautiful scenery and exciting, a day to sleep late and hang out sounds much better right now.

After taking Ziggy out for an early morning walk and seeing off the guests with our tailgunners as chaperones, we sleep until 11am. That feels great and now it's time to eat. We go downtown to the Klondike, our favorite, and Jeff has the fish and chips he's been craving. I had a spinach salad topped with cold, grilled halibut marinated in a honey, mango sauce and raspberry vinaigrette dressing. Pretty good eating! Later we did mundane things like laundry and food shopping. A great night of cable TV topped off the day and we packed up to leave in the morning.
