The day started out with a bus ride into Yukon Territory, Canada and a ride on the narrow gauge White Pass and Yukon Railroad on the way back. Seen is one of their trains waiting to take another group of passengers into the mountains. It was parked next to our ship. The lower right photo is of a train on the line taken from our bus.

These were taken on the bus ride from Skagway to Carcross and the Frontierland Museum, where we had a barbeque lunch. We saw a black bear next to the road on the way to meet the train.

Some nice scenes from the ride on the White Pass and Yukon Railroad from near Carcross back to Skagway, including scenes of Skagway itself.
