Alaska Trip: July 9th

We left Anchorage Friday morning to drive down to a little town called Whittier. The population of Whittier is less than 200 people. Getting to Whittier was interesting, too. The only way to get there by land is through a one-lane tunnel that traffic going both ways must use, plus trains! To accommodate all of this traffic cars trade off every half-hour going through each way with trains mixed in there somewhere.
Once we arrived in Whittier we grabbed some hot cocoa then we walked around for a while before catching our cruise: The 26 Glacier Cruise. I took WAY too many pictures and have also uploaded way too many pictures to the BBBBlog. I just couldn't resist snapping pictures of some of the most gorgeous scenery in the world. You can find ALL of the pictures I snapped here: http://picasaweb.google.com/BobBruff/Alaska2010Pics?authkey=Gv1sRgCLu_yb3--ZmjnQE#

Apparently dogs in Whittier aren't supposed to poop
