We have 24 hours of complimentary internet today and another day of our choosing on this cruise, so I might be back. We are about halfway through the cruise, weather pretty good, if way too hot for this early in the season. It is 70 today in Skagway. We stayed on the ship. There has been what we believe is a young humpback whale playing and feeding very close to the ship all morning and afternoon.
