Another day of travel. It was still raining when we got up.
First, we did the laundry before we checked out of the hotel. We figured that instead of sitting around waiting to check out we might as well get some things done. It is one of the things that one must do when one travels for more than a week.
On our way to the ferry terminal we stopped for some sandwiches to take along with us on the ferry - cheaper.
We then went to Mendenhall Glacier even though it was raining. It was on the way to the ferry terminal. I went to all of the viewing areas with my cameras and an umbrella. The glacier was not as 'colorful' as the one at Tracy Arm - there was more dirt in the ice.
We took the ferry and arrived in Haines around 7:30 pm. Our Hotel is a building that was once part of Fort Seward, one of the first US Army forts in Alaska.
Well, that is all for now - we need to get up early for a river float trip tomorrow - we hope it stops raining.
