Alaska - Day 11 - Icy Strait Point and Hoonah - Sept. 4, 2012

After our mandatory visit to the gift shop, Ron and I head out on a short nature hike through the woods at Icy Strait Point.  This stop was designed especially for tourists and the gift shops are in what used to be a cannery for the town of Hoonah.  There is a display of the canning process and some history of Hoonah.  











 Upon our return from our walk in the woods, we happen on some locals performing a tribal dance...


Ron & I were invited to a celebration with others on the cruise who were honeymooning or celebrating anniversaries.  The ship's captain welcomed us and we shared a cake and champagne toast.
