Juneau et le glacier Taku

Our last stop was Juneau, and it turned out we’d saved our best excursion for last: a helicopter ride to the Taku Glacier. The sky was overcast but fortunately not socked in as we took off, and we were treated to absolutely amazing views.
After our glacial adventure, I met up with mon mari (who hates to fly and passed on our aerial fun) for a fabulous lunch of cedar plank salmon and Alaskan microbrew beer at the Taku Smokeries. We also bought some yummy cold-smoked salmon that they shipped to arrive a few days after we got home. So we still have a little bit of Alaksa in the fridge.

Breathtaking! Must feel like you are in another world.
Stunning pictures. No more to add.
Oh my! Beautiful! Must have been so much more stunning in person.
I’ve never been in a helicopter. I’m suprised to hear it was quiet.
My brother in law lived up there for 7 yrs and I’m kicking myself for never visiting him while he was there.
That shade of blue is amazing.
