Ferry to Juneau

I honestly don’t know why people spend so much money on Alaskan Cruises when you can see the same stuff for a fraction of the cost by taking one of the Alaska State Marine Highway ferries. They are as big as a cruise ship, quite comfortable and have good food. Since you pay by the meal, you also don’t feel obligated to stuff yourself:<) I had a very pleasant ride from Wrangell to Juneau today, with a brief stop in Petersburg. The day started rainy, but gradually improved slightly as we made out way North. There were a few Whales and Orcas around, but too far to really get a good shot, though people were trying with their iPhones:<)

The trip started with heavy overcast in the Narrows:

Later, the sky started to break up into interesting clouds:

We even had a couple rainbows. This one is pretty subtle, but I was in the rainy part at the time:

And a couple of actual sections of blue sky showing through:
