Day 47- March 24th, 2010
The next day we did a lot of shopping. The ferry didn’t leave till Friday morning, so we were stuck in Juneau for two nights. Since it was spring break, we met a lot of people from Haines who were also shopping. We mostly bought household supplies or clothes, which can be somewhat limited in Haines. Sheeshao met a couple of friends of hers from Haines at the store and instantly started playing.
Later we went with one of Sheeshao’s friends out to the Mendenhall Glacier, which is just a few minutes out of town. We went on a short little hike out to see it. It was surprisingly warm. There was snow near the glacier, but around the rest of town there was next to nothing. I was expecting it to be somewhat wintery, but it felt more like spring. I am sort of sad that I missed half of the winter here, but I guess New Zealand was worth it.
Later that night we met some friends of ours from when we used to live in Juneau. We went out to a Mexican restaurant with them and had fun talking about our trip.
