At the end of May my wife and I decided to see Alaska in its full glory, so we purchased cruising tickets from Princess.

Alaska is known for its weather and also its interesting history, but its wildlife is probably the most entertaining. On the Sunday of the cruise we went whale watching in Juneau, which was probably the most entertaining excursion of our trip. At first we weren't really seeing much, but when our captain got a call that someone had spotted a number of whales eating we were off to the adventure. Right away we saw the whales close to shore. The highlight of the show and stay at Juneau was when a Humpback whale jumped right in front of our boat. I was able to take three pictures.
