POSTBLOG FROM JUNEAU: City of Dogs

There are a lot of dogs here in Juneau. The hotel where we are staying has a limit to the number of pets you can have. Five. No more than five dogs can be in your hotel room.

Yelp reviews talked about a dog at the front desk. I pictured a big Alaskan husky or something. Turns out it's a little miniature poodle type puppy.

Everywhere you go there are dogs.

As we walked downtown we saw people with dogs.  As we walked by giant cruise ships which are not like the one we sail on tomorrow, we saw people with dogs.

As we hiked around the magnificent Mendenhall Glacier, yep, people with dogs.

I thought Boulder was dog crazy.

Juneau is very big and very small. Land area wise, it's one of the biggest in the U.S. Population wise, however, it's only 30,000 or so. I don't know how many dogs live here, but I'll bet it's a lot.

It rains a lot in Juneau, thus the many waterfalls in the surrounding mountains.

Tomorrow our cruise starts. I don't know if there will be dogs on board.
