After breakfast we went ashore to the meeting place for our excursion 'Historic Ketchikan Trolley'. This was a tour around the city sights and to a totem pole village. We then teturned to town and went for a walk through the streets before making our way back to the ship.
This town is very unique. The construction of the homes is mainly timber and as the town is built on a mountain side, the homes are often high up.
The weather was cool, forecast was for 15 degrees. This is typical summer weather in Alaska! It rains most of the year but for a few hours we had clear skies and then it started to rain very slightly.
There are three ships in port today, our ship the Radiance of the Seas, the Celebrity Solstice and the Pacific Princess.
Here are some photos.

This is the Trolley car we went in for our excursion.
We are now back on the ship and relaxing prior to sailing away to the next port this afternoon.
