Creator's Key Takeaways

It is absolutely gorgeous. The kids are exhausted. They're in the bed. I told them I would get them up once we got closer to the glacier. But y'all, this is absolutely beautiful.

We're about to get off the ship in Juno. This is our first time in Juno, so we don't have a whole lot planned.

I would definitely come and check the Alaska capital out. Um very old building, but a lot of history here.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check out the Alaska State Capital for a free self-guided tour if you don't have an excursion plan.
โœ“Visit the Alaska Fudge Company for amazing lemon cookies.
โœ“Wear good shoes for the uphill walk to the capital.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

In this video, weโ€™re sharing our full day of contrasts starting with a stunning glacier experience at Dawes Glacier and ending our day in Juneau after a slow paced but fun day during our Alaska cruise on Discovery Princess! In the early morning, we experienced the incredible views of Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier, with scenic cruising unlike anything weโ€™ve seen before. We even saw a few sea otters hanging out on a chunk of ice! If youโ€™re wondering what to expect on glacier viewing day aboard Princess Cruises, this is for you. In Juneau, we didnโ€™t book an excursion again, we just explored on foot, took a free tour of the Alaska State Capitol, and sampled a few local food spots.
