My summer in Alaska

Well, I started out my summer by returning from 4 months in Granada, Spain. I had a great deal of trouble finding a job where my family is now living in Indiana and eventually ended up getting hired by a cruise company to work in Alaska on a cruise ship. I started on August 10th in Ketchikan, Alaska and spent the next 6 weeks going back and forth between Ketchikan and Juneau. On the ship I serve three meals a day in the dining room and I clean about 8 state rooms each day. It's a lot of work, but I really enjoy my job.

The great thing about my job is that seeing wildlife and amazing sights - like glaciers calving - is a daily occurence. It's pretty amazing to float through fjords weekly, see orcas mating, visit glaciers every few days, and get to know some incredibly cute small towns.

As I will be posting a great deal about my job and whales when I get to Mexico for now I am just going to post a few photos things unique to Alaska (glaciers!!!!).
