Places to Visit in Juneau, Alaska ↠ Shrine of St. Therese.

I'm not catholic, but Shrine of St. Therese is one of my favorite spots in Juneau. Let me tell you why...

The shrine sits at the end of a little piece of land that juts out from the shore, so you're surrounded by ocean and gorgeous mountain views. At the end of the trail, the land goes up a bit so it's a perfect spot to get some great pictures and look out at the beautiful scenery. And if you're lucky, you might spot some whales and sea lions!

It's also one of the most peaceful places around. I've been there twice now, and it doesn't matter if you're the only one there or if there are lots of people, everyone is very quiet and respectful there. It's a great place to get a bit of time to reflect. 

Are any of you planning on visiting Juneau this summer? If so, I definitely recommend adding the shrine to your list of places to visit. Make it a pit stop on your drive up North along the coast!

Semi Winter Weather Outfit.

Growing up in Kansas, I know to expect weather that's all over the place. In the past few days, we've gone from bone-chilling winds to sunny and 60 degrees. I'm not complaining in the slightest, because the warm days really make the freezing cold seem more bearable...a bit anyway. I found these shoes right before the freezing temps hit and I bought them knowing that I might not get to wear them as much this season, but I didn't care, because I love them. It was pretty exciting now that it's warmed back up a bit, to bust them out and let my feet free from boots for a day or two...I kept the comfy sweater on though. ;)

I've also been wearing these rings as often as possible, I don't own many gold accessories, but I just love this gorgeous owl ring and gold stacking rings! And this sweater is so comfy, I had to buy it in the light pink color too...and I wear them more often than I'm willing to admit.

Has anyone else been experiencing weather that you just can't keep up with? I'm a tiny bit jealous of those of you who have gotten snow like Dave in Alaska...I'm getting so excited to see it as a winter wonderland, but I'm ok with a few more days of warm sunshine before I go.
