This is our last stop in Alaska and it is the biggest town in Alaska.
The ship docked about 9am and we went ashore at 9:30 and found more end-of-season specials on sale. We had morning tea in a diner that was set in the 1950s and they even sold milkshakes.
Another cruise ship was next to ours, the Norwegian Jewel and it seemed to have mainly Americans.
The Lumberjack Show started at 1pm and lasted an hour. The little lady overdid the commentary and tried to gee us up to pit the Canadian Team against the Americans.
We were allotted the Dawson Creek pair.
They competed with a two man saw.
Their axemanship cutting through logs was not up to David Foster's standard.
They were good at throwing the axe at a target.
Our man won the pole climb and descent.
Their man won the log running.
In the evening we had Paul Pappas play the piano Liberace style, followed by a duo of Ukraine ladies called Adagio who played violin and piano. Both performances were excellent and very much enjoyed.
