Rain, Rain, misty, fog...It was a great informative ride. The weather just did not want to work with us. Our first stop was at Brotherhood Bridge Trail for the view of Mendenhall Glacier. It would have been a great spot but Mother Nature had other plans and left it blocked by fog. Next stop was on Douglas Island at Homestead Park. We walked down to the viewing point and took photos of the Channel and 5 ships ( 1 that was tendering ) that were in port at that time. Next stepping off point was Tahku: The Whale Sculpture. The fountain has a water show that makes Tahku look like it is coming out of the water. The fountain lasts 5ish minutes and starts every 15 - 20 minutes. Our tour driver passed on lots of information about each stop, and pointed out wildlife as we passed by it. She made the most of situation. This was a great 90 minute tour and would be delighted to do again. You just can't trust Mother Nature to always work with you.
