Alaska, Day Eight-B

 We spent more than four hours on the Skagway White Pass train.

How many photos can one take in this amazing and awesome landscape?  It turns out that one hundred and seventy pictures is not that unusual.  Are you ready to be overwhelmed? Or bored?



We traveled high above the river and crossed ravines on rail bridges.



Not this bridge...






Wait!  Are there three flags there?
Yes.
One of them is the Canadian flag.

We crossed the border from Alaska into British Columbia!  We had to provide our passports.  Even Eleanor had to show her US citizenship.

Good-bye Alaska!  See you later today!


Our next stop will be Bennett, British Columbia...

I love all your photos! I can only imagine the beauties you saw along the way! I know it was all amazing and awesome and jaw dropping! Thank you for sharing it with us! This was a trip of a lifetime, so yes, enjoy those photos and share them with all of us! We may never get to take that trip, so I love seeing it through your eyes. Thank you.

Hooray for digital photography where you never have to worry about taking too many photos! Sorting through them can be an issue. :) A stretch of our world I'll never see in person. Thanks for the photos!
