Places to Visit in Juneau, Alaska ↠ Tracy Arm Fjord and Glacier Cruise.

We did a lot of awesome things while my family visited a few weeks ago, but I think my favorite was the Tracy Arm Fjord and Glacier Cruise. It's a full day of boating out to the fjord and glaciers, but definitely worth a trip if you have the time while you're in Juneau. We saw whales (my first orca!), seals, and tons of sea lions out on the iceburgs.

They take you out to North and South Sawyer Glaciers, inside the Tracy Arm Fjord. It is absolutely magical out there and I'm really hoping I can take another trip out there someday...

...we really lucked out, too. It was a pretty high chance of rain, and it's Juneau, but we had one of the most gorgeous days ever. It still would have been fun, and you have seats inside the boat so you wouldn't be drenched, but I loved getting on the top deck to view the wildlife and gorgeous landscapes.

Make sure to bring a jacket, it gets pretty chilly by the glaciers and if you go to the top deck while the boats going, that wind will get you!

Places to Eat in Juneau, Alaska ↠ Sandpiper Cafe.

For some reason I had it in my head that Sandpiper Cafe, here in Juneau, was a greasy breakfast joint that you save for the morning after you've had too much to drink or just feel like really indulging. This was not the case at all! We made a trip there during the week my Dad and brother were in town and LOVED their cute little cafe. I already know what I'll order next time Dave and I go there for brunch...

Everyone got something different and we all loved our choices. I had the breakfast burrito and it was everything I hoped for, and more. Update: we went back several times and I highly recommend the Vegan Pecan Pancakes (not super sweet or too indulgent for breakfast), Quiche (look at the pretty fruit that comes with it!), and the Salmon Omelette. 

What's the best breakfast spot in your town? Let me know in the comments! Going out for brunch is our favorite and we're always traveling, so I'd love your suggestions.
