| Our first port call was Sitka, Alaska. Sitka is locted in theTongass National Forest, the world's largest temperate rainforest. |
 |
| At Sitka's port, Julie and Peter meet their guide for a hike in the Tongass forest. See the "nature" section for forest photos. |
 |
| The Queen Elizabeth dwarves Sikta's port as Julie passes under Sitka's grand entry point. |
 |
| Peter cozies up to Sitka's beauty pageant winner. His charms seem to be working – look at that bird's smile. |
 |
| "Dog" salmon swim in a shallow Sitka stream. Our hike guide told us this variety of salmon is only fit for feeding dogs. |
 |
| An indigenous Sitkan enjoys a kernnel of corn and thoroughly delights Julie since she loves all fuzzy critters. |
 |
When the Queen Elizabeth departed, Sitka's port went quiet. Only relatively small tourist and fishing boats remain.
