Skagway

Next stop was Skagway and it was a wee bit chilly willy to say the least. We got off the boat and I thought for sure I was going to be a Popsicle before the end of the day. It was hard to go from Utah weather of 95 to Alaska weather of 40. But I put on my big girl pants and my Alaska beenie and we walked around the town. It was a cute little town they had a cool frat house that was make from wood and then we went to the saloon and they had a cool display of what it was like back in the day with fun things that they had found in the floor boards when they were remodeling it. We then met up with the fam and headed out on the Skagway train. Which was a four hour train ride through the mountains where we saw beautiful scenery and waterfalls and a BEAR. Yep a bear that made the trip worth while. I checked that off the lists of things to see while on the trip and it was great.  The little kaboose on the bottom left is where you can stay the night so you know where Dave and I will be staying next time we are in Skagway.
