White Pass Route - Carcross Canada

North America-Canada-Yukon-Carcross Had a day trip out here by a mix of train and coach. Really enjoyed it . Stopped in Carcross for a few hours . This White pass route is well known and famous. 

On the day I got here , the post office closed early. I was planning on sticking this card with a $10 bill under the door, but they told me in the gift shop it would not work!! . So I gave it to them and they said they would post it for me. A nice cancellation.

Skagway - Alaska

North America-Alaska-Skagway This town had some very nice buildings. I felt i was in a old Cowboy western movie set. I did have a nice walk up and down the town. Spend most of the time on a train going to Yukon Territory 

Hard to read the cancellation. Posted locally.

Mendenhall Glacier - Alaska

North America-Alaska-Juneau This was more or less the exact look and location I had when I visited here in early August. It was a beautiful day . Got the Bus from Juneau and a walk . There is a interesting museum right beside the Glacier. On the ship also visited Glacier Bay, which was amazing , never to be forgotten 

Love the little stamp with the different faces and the hats. Very cleaver.

Juneau Capital of Alaska

North America-Alaska-Juneau This shows the busy cruise dock and a overview of the city. This was visited taking the inside passage on an Alaskan cruise. Loved it all .

The back of the card is showing a map of the inside passage. Like the set of stamps showing rivers in the USA.

Map of Alaska

North America-Alaska-Juneau I love maps . This is showing how big Alaska is comparing to the rest of the USA. Here I am in Juneau the capital of Alaska. Though being here it does not feel like a state capital. Very small. 

The Post office here had no official sign outside and was told it was contracted out. Well looking at the postmark it makes sense . Showing "Juneau AK Contract Station" . They had a few different choice of stamps. Staff at the "Post Office " which was also a shop were very helpful which was also a shop.
