	Ketchikan Port Rating: We enjoyed walking around Ketchikan, nice and clean little town. Nice to walk right off the ship to the shops and restaurants.

	Icy Strait Port Rating: You are tendered at this port. There is nothing at all here. When you get off, it is about a mile walk to the little town. There is one little restaurant that had fresh seafood (we did not eat there). We walked around and saw a few eagles in the trees and walked back to the ship. There are several tours available here and the folks who did the zip line said it was great. If you are not taking a tour there is no reason to get off, no shops and only one restaurant.

	Juneau Mendenhall Glacier Rating: This was a real plus. The Mendenhall Glacier is beautiful. We saw a bear and her two cubs walking the creek. Whale watching Rating: Great tour guide and driver, nice clean boat. Did see whales and eagles. A very enjoyable trip.
