Day 4 Fire in the Priest's Cabin or So They Thought

We arrived in the state capital today. And no, there was no sarah siting. She is too busy wither TV show and planning her 2012 campaign. During the ships fire drill for crew just as I was stepping out of the shower there was a fire alarm and a phone call. Now if you know my history with the Statendam you know I have two fires on board while I was on board. Sure enough there was a real fire alarm again, only this time the phone call came to my room . It was the officer of he deck needing to know if I was Ok. It seems the fire alarm was coming from my room. When I took my shower I apparently set it off. Now I am 3 for 3 as to fires on board while I am on board.

Today was a damp rainy day with much of the area in rain. I had no activities to take care so I just relaxed till about noon and then went out for my annual trip to Mickey D’s for a Big Mac or something and wondering around town. Unfortunately I forgot how cold it gets up here when it rains so I now have a new jacket for the rest of the trip. I had a chance to meet a well educated local who told me all kinds of facts about Juneau and the waters around. He makes jewelry out of crab claws and sells them for $50 Maybe I shall have to start a new business. I wondered around town and checked out the local artists. There are some great things being done with glass and with artifacts and I will haven much to share with you when I get home. As I set here typing my cabin is directly over the main stage so I am getting entertained by the HAL Cats. We are heading out in about a half hour so I will go out on my deck (the veranda Deck) and watch us sail away from Juneau on to Skagway. I get to go to Glassblowing site as an escort. More tomorrow!
