The next morning we arrived in Skagway, known as the Gateway to the Klondike. It is a popular stop for cruise ships. The narrow gauge railway is part of the mining's past, but now is just for the tourists.

Especially those of you who have cruised, you will recognize this boat as the pilot boat. The captain does not take the ship into the harbor. The Filipino pilot does this. The same thing happens in reverse. The pilot will guide the ship out of the harbor, get back on his little tug, and the ship's captain once again takes over. It's fun to watch.

I am boarding the Norwegian Dream for a transatlantic trip. It is also called a repositioning cruise. When the seasons change, many cruise ships change their itinerary. This ship went from going to the Caribbean to European capitals. These cruises aren't as expensive as others, but you don't see as many places.

My favorite way of travelling is by cruise ship. A lot of people, particular those who haven't cruised before, ask me what it's like. One word: peaceful. This photo shows the open walkway around the ship. For the walkers and runners, it's marked off as to feet and miles so you know how far you have gone.

Each cruise ship has a casino. I don't go there very often because I don't have very much luck. However, I found a quarter on the floor, and wound up winning $200.00. Yea! And, yes, I left with my winnings.

Since this wasn't a large cruise ship, the cabins were really small, but very cozy.
