We arrived in Juneau at 7:00 am. Ha! It
was a wonderful sunny day!
Juneau is Alaska’s capital city and home to 38 major
glaciers.
My friend and I walked in downtown Juneau and visited St.
Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church. St.
Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church was built in 1894 and is the oldest original
Russian Orthodox Church in southeast Alaska.
After visiting the downtown Juneau, we jumped on the shuttle to
Mendenhall Glacier. Mendenhall Glacier stretching over 1 ½ miles wide, it is
very accessible glacier. After the shuttle arrived, we got out of the shuttle and followed the boardwalk to the glacier.
Breathtaking views!
However, a sad note, my friend told me that the size of the
glacier was much smaller than last time she visited about 8 years ago. We need to learn how to protect our own
environment and protect our own earth!
So, the glacier can be seen by the generations to come.
