On the morning of our last ferry ride, from Juneau to Haines, we had time to visit the State Museum. We had heard that it was not to be missed! After a couple of hours, we all had to agree that it was time well spent. We learned so much about Alaska's history!
John, Alyce and I outside the museum.

Alyce and I are enjoying an eagle exhibit

Tony and I were interested in this exhibit what showed the part of Alaskan history played by President Dwight Eisenhower. He signed the bill making Alaska a state.

Here we are waiting for the ferry to Haines.

Tony was able to get several shots of a pod of whales from the ferry as we made our way toward Haines.




Again, the Alaskan scenery is breathtaking!!

We saw a couple of lighthouses on this trip.


Here I am on the ferry in front of another of Alaska's snow capped mountains!

The Malaspina, docked at Haines

Upon arrival at 9:30 pm, we checked into the Oceanside RV Park in Haines. We had called ahead for a reservation since we were getting in so late. It's a good thing because they had no room to spare. The spot was right on the waterfront within easy walking distance of town.
