20070919 Sitka
A very foggy day with mist and light rain. The port’s ship schedule was:
RADIANCE OF THE SEA
08:00 - 17:00
OOSTERDAM
08:00 - 17:00
DAWN PRINCESS
10:00 18:00
There’s no dock in Sitka large enough to handle a cruise ship, so all visiting ships anchor out in the adjoining waters and use their tenders/lifeboats to ferry visitors into town and back.
So we hopped aboard and bounced over the waves into Sitka.
We did a nature hike the mist and rain, and looked into the reconstructed Russian Orthodox church. We only had a brief stay here, so we scurried back on board.
