“Packed & Ready, Volume 1” is a travelogue of our adventure wedding and honeymoon journey into rugged Alaska. We begin with some time in Vancouver, BC, then board the Island Princess for a wondrous cruise northward through the Inside Passage. Landfalls in Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway give us a feel for the special people and challenging lifestyle of the far north.
Seeking natural thrills, we proceed into the spectacular world of Glacier Bay and College Fjord where eons of history await. Park rangers board the ship to narrate this tour through the ages.
After the cruise we arrive in Anchorage and travel by bus, car and train to the awesome wilderness of Denali National Park. These six million acres of unbelievable tundra, mountains, wild animals and magnificent vistas will soften even the hardest urbanites!
More than 50 photos accompany the story, which we trust will nudge the travel-bug inside you. |

With the same rigorous observation (natural and social), invigorating stylishness, and encyclopedic learning that he brought to his National Book Award-winning Bad Land, Jonathan Raban conducts readers along the Inside Passage from Seattle to Juneau. The physical distance is 1,000 miles of difficult-and often treacherous-water, which Raban navigates solo in a 35-foot sailboat.
But Passage to Juneau also traverses a gulf of centuries and cultures: the immeasurable divide between the Northwest's Indians and its first European explorers-- between its embattled fishermen and loggers and its pampered new class. Along the way, Raban offers captivating discourses on art, philosophy, and navigation and an unsparing narrative of personal loss. |

Inside Passage Walking Tours: Exploring Major Ports of Call in Southeast Alaska, by Julianne Chase, is ideal for Alaska cruise ship passengers or anyone else who wants insider advice on what to see and do on a limited schedule. The best way to experience Southeast Alaska‚s premier destinations -- Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, and Sitka -- is on foot, and Inside Passage Walking Tours is the ideal personal tour guide. Inside Passage Walking Tours is an indispensable guide for cruise ship passengers who like to explore on their own, business travelers, state ferry riders, and individual boaters and sailors. Author Julianne Chase works with one of the major cruise lines. She has walked each route numerous times and offers tips on side trips, alternative paths, and what to wear and carry. For the more adventurous walker, she describes two nearby wilderness hikes for each town, while boxed "quick facts" detail population, commerce, and weather statistics. Each walk includes historic sites, Native American and other cultural information, the best lookouts and vistas, suggested dining spots (mentioned under "Grabbing a Bite" in each section), local personalities, events, shopping areas, maps, and photographs. Another huge plus: Chase set up her book so that the walks are all circular routes. A person can start anywhere on the route, make their way along the entire tour, and finish right back where they started. |
