Sled Dog Camp and Whale

Jobi and I went to a dog sledding camp in Juneau while Jon went fishing. We got to meet one of the puppies named Euro. He was a cutie. It was fun to see those dogs work so hard to please their owner and they just love to work.
This was the lead dogs that pulled us on our cart.
This was the cart we got pulled on and look how many dogs pulled us. The went really fast too. We had fun.
We went on a whale watching tour in Hoonah. We got so close to the humpback whales. This one was a young whale and he loved to jump and show off. It was so cool. We were so close. The water was so blue because of the glaciers breaking off into the ocean. They were jumping all around us. Our tour was guaranteed to see whales and we did.
My cute boys trying not to get wet. This was Seward. It was really pretty there. We got off our cruise ship in Seward. It was a long time on a boat trapped with so many other tourist. We were really happy to get off the ship.

Are you sick of Alaska yet?

Hubbard Glacier. Enough said! It was awesome. You could hear the thunder sound of the glacier falling apart. It was pretty cool.
We got to the glacier pretty early in the morning, but we managed to get out of bed to go see it.
It was cold.

This was Jobi's pet whale we found in Seward. We liked Seward a lot.

Alaska Part 2

This is a town called Hoonah or Icy Straight Point. This is were we went whale watching, but I will post those next. It was our first really sunny day on the water. It was nice.
Jobi and I were exploring the tide pools. We found lots of cool rocks and hermit crabs. It was fun to show Jobi all those things. He thought it was pretty awesome.
I think this shot is of Juneau. I am mixing up all the pictures on accident. I was trying to do it in order, but you get the idea! Juneau was really pretty. Look how green it is.
Uh-oh! Jobi should know not to feed the bears. The bears were everywhere!
A bear hug from big Jon. Isn't that just adorable?!?!

Alaska Part 1

Jobi was really obsessed with basketball on the ship. He even wanted to play in the rain. He is a good player. All he wants to do when he is home is play basketball.
This was our room on the ship. It was pretty small. Next time if we go on a cruise, we want the room with a balcony! That is mostly what we did on the ship. Sit out on the deck and watch the scenery go by.
It was so pretty there. It looks just like I expected it to.
This is us leaving Ketchican. Cruise ships are just lined up at the ports. It's like the tiny town just gets invaded.
My boys enjoying their cruise! Cuties!

Alaska

It doesn't get cuter than this! This is Jobi on the cruise ship.
This is in Ketchican. The river runs through the the little shops and the buildings were all colorful. It was so pretty.

I don't remember where this was. I think it was between Vancouver and Ketchican.
Jon thought he saw something in the water. Oh wait, no, he is just a funny guy!

North to Alaska

I hope you guys are ready for a ton of pictures! I will try to keep them coming fast. I know I am not the best at posting often. Get over it!
This is the year we finally got to go to Alaska as a family. We did a week long cruise to the places you can only get to by boat and airplane. Then a week on the interior of the state. It was fun. We left from Vancouver, B.C. and flew home from Fairbanks, AK. This is Jobi on the ship playing basketball. It was very rainy while we were on the ship. It was beautiful though.
This is Vancouver in the background. Jobi is so photogenic.
Looks like a postcard, but it wasn't!
