Juneau, Alaska


On Thursday we headed north on Alaska Airlines. The first plane left at 6am from Wenatchee to Seattle and the second left around 8am from Seattle to Juneau. We had a long break in Juneau to wait for the southbound plane to Petersburg so we got together with Lindsi (my friend from high school and college).


Lindsi brought us up the tram that leaves downtown Juneau and heads up Mt. Roberts.


Lindsi has a sweet little boy named Payton. Both Brooke and Payton got some time on the mountain to explore on foot! Brooke liked the flat surfaces and Payton tried to climb the mountain!


He's on a mission! Every few steps Payton had a great time picking up rocks and sticks to throw. What a big boy!


We LOVE our Ergo's! All the tourists on the trails loved seeing these babies on their mother's backs.


Thousands of tourists from the cruise ships swamp the downtown all summer.


The flowers were starting to come out on the mountain. These chocolate lilies (thanks mom for naming the flower!) were really neat to see.


Payton and Brooke got to face each other in the car. Brooke shared "her" cell phone with Payton.

... and Payton made all the phone calls.
Thanks Lindsi for a fun day!

Cute post :) I love the pictures! We'll have to get the kids together in Pburg! I get there on the 3rd and leave the 7th.
