Yes! We went traveling again and we chose to travel by a means reviled of many forumers, as it tends to bring one in close proximity of Wal-Mart shoppers: the Carnival cruise. We sailed on the Carnival Spirit to be precise and specifically to spite certain uppity forumers, we had a rather nice time. I came away from the experience inspired to recreate certain recipes from the dining room (chicken in tarragon sauce FTW), and the cachet of being able to say we saw Alaska. Our itinerary included all the cities listed in the title, plus a sail up the Tracy Arm Fjord. I refused to take photos of our excursion to the Mendenhall Glacier in Juneau, and of Tracy Arm Fjord because I wanted to just sit and enjoy the experience without a camera at all. This made me a distinct minority in a jostling scrum of tourists taking selfies.
This is pretty much all we saw of Juneau, because we got off the ship and got on a bus that took us to the glacier, and then we got off the bus and got back on the ship after standing in a godawful line. There wasn't time to go sightseeing in the city.
Now, in a thread I posted back in July, another forumer noted the lack of theme music. I pride myself on theme music for my threads, and I try to choose video game music for my themes. I think video game music is a very underappreciated art. However, considering our method of travel and the fact that these photos were taken from the deck of a cruise, and that there's only four of them, this is honestly the only appropriate theme (and it's not really a song per se...) for Juneau:
