Juneau, Alaska

At our Juneau stop (day 4) most of our group of 36 went on a river rafting excursion. It was a lot of fun. We went through a few rapids which was new to me and exciting! My first time river rafting. It started with a float by Mendenhall Glacier, then a 2 hour river raft. The sun poked out a little towards the end of the adventure. We saw a bunch of bald eagles on this excursion also, which was really exciting for all of us. The fresh air up in Alaska is so wonderful. I have never experienced anything like this before. I hope to go back again!!!

Here is our group going to the excursion (about 20 minutes from the ship):
