Alaska

Here we are in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia. (that's Jack sitting to my left) This is the outside veranda at the Waterfront Centre Hotel. What a beautiful view of the docks and surrounding area. After the long flight it was a pleasure to sit out here enjoying a cup of tea and chatting. Everyone was pleasant here, especially Gordon and Karen.

Would you believe I was kidnapped or rabbit-napped? There I was, just sitting there enjoying my tea and wham! gone just like that. Jack found this ransom note where I was sitting. He told me later he was mortified. He'd just turned his back for an instant and I was gone. At first he thought I'd gone to the restroom or maybe chased some good looking bunny down the street. But after I didn't return for a while he noticed this ransom note on my chair. In case you can't read it, it says; IF YOU WANT YOUR BUNNY HUNT ME DOWN

As it turns out it was not a serious rabbit-napping. It was a joke played out by Gordon the server. What a really nice person he is. Here we are, just a couple of out of towners, sitting there in a strange place and he made us feel really welcome. Thanks Gordon!

This is the train ride to Anchorage. It took a few hours and went through the mountains. What a great trip.

Sailed from Vancouver to Ketchekan (I'm not sure how to spell it) and then to Juneau. That's where I met Kurt. He was really nice, let me sit at his table and stuff while I had a Coors Light. I'm not much for conversation but Kurt was really talkative. I think he must talk to rabbits all the time. Anyway this picture was taken in the Red Dog Saloon in Juneau. A really nice place, saw dust on the floor, good music and great atmosphere. "Thanks Kurt for the good time."

The Red Dog Saloon... Full of nostalgia, history and just a great place to eat & drink. If you get to Juneau you can't miss it.
