Ketchikan was our favorite port of call on the trip. A lovely city that, although it's the rain capital of the USA normally, we hit beautifull sunny skys and such a pretty place. It bill's itself as the salmon capital of the world and no wonder why.. salmon literally jumping out of every bit of water around...
The salmon were heading upstream for spawning and they were everywhere. In addition, the city was so nice and quaint with houses and vehicles in the downtown which were run down and covered with moss, beautiful shops and Creek Street which was the tourist trap with it's shops and the main attraction, the refurbished brothels from the gold rush days.
Although the downtown homes were somewhat run down, there were literally miles and miles of beautiful homes along the shore of the ocean as we sailed out of Kethchikan on day 5 of our trip. Life is Good!
