Alaska, Sitka




On the shortest night 10:30-4 we traveled to Sitka, and what a beautiful town it is, the harbor could not handle the big ship so we had to be tendered ashore.

Sitka is full of Russian influence noticeable on approach by the Russian Orthodox Church and its dome. It is a quaint little town with little shops, galleries and parks.

We went to the National park where we saw many totem poles and a couple of eagles.
