Arriving in Ketchikan

Finally arrived in Ketchikan.  A seasoned fishing village embedded in the rocks of Tongass Narrows on Revillagigedo Island. There are about 10,000 residents, and about 12,000 visitors who arrive aboard the four cruise ships that dock here every DAY.  As you can see, the ships dwarf the town.  We were surprised to find that there were more jewelry stores and bars than anything else.  Excellent dinner at Bar Harbor Restaurant with Banana ice cream for desert. Deluged with epiphanies and sweet slumber.
