The Shrine of Saint Therese Sometimes called the most peaceful place in Southeast Alaska. You don't have to be Catholic to enjoy the peace and serenity of the Shrine. I'm not Catholic, and it's one of my favorite places. I love walking the labyrinth. If you have a love for places where you can feel the spirituality, you'll love the Shrine. Ifyou love calm peaceful places, you'll love the Shrine. If you are Catholic and you're in Juneau on Sunday, I invite you to partake of the Mass at 1:30. |
DOG-SLEDDING AND/OR GLACIER WALK Tour downtown, see the Mendenhall Glacier, then board a helicopter and see the Glacier "up close and personal." It's a whole different experience, standing on the glacier, peering down a bore hole --looking into the heart of the glacier. You truly have not experienced the glacier until you've walked on it. Want a little more excitement? How about trying out Alaska's state sport -- dog mushing. We'll drop you off for your helicopter tour, then pick you up and take you to see the fish before delivering you back downtown. You won't stop talking about this awesome experience. |
