June 12, Instead of driving down to Skagway after our trip into Alaska, we decided to take a bus/train tour to Skagway. We got picked by a bus at our campground at 8:40 this morning, had a stop in the small town of Carcross, Yukon, for about half hour to 45 min. Back on the bus and then stopped again in Fraser, BC, and got on the train, had to have our passports ready for them to check it. The train climbed to 2,865 ft and then down to sea level in Skagway, had gone through 2 tunnels, saw waterfalls and mountains, avalanches and beautiful scenery. Spent two hours in Skagway, finding something to eat and roam the streets and checking out some stores, lots of people everywhere, two cruise ships where at port. Got back on the bus for our 3 hour ride back to the campground. The weather wasn’t the greatest, raining off and on, but that didn’t deter our trip, great day.
