For all of our baby boomer readers who’ve wondered, “Where is Alan?” He’s back! After several months of settling into his Montana office (and covering for me so that I could attend to blogging and writing duties during our move) Alan is ready to get back to work at My Itchy Travel Feet. Today, he looked through his photo collection to find this unexpected scene in Alaska.
When our American Safari Cruise ship docked in Ketchikan, we took a ride out to Mountain Point for an introduction to cold water adventure with Snorkel Alaska. Although we didn’t have time to try the full experience, Alan did have a chance to catch some neat underwater photos. Who knew the starfish were so colorful in cold waters? Have you snorkeled in Alaska? Post a comment to share your experience. We’d definitely give this a try the next time our ship sails into Ketchikan. It sure beats wandering around the jewelry stores on the waterfront. Well, on second thought…
Disclosure: American Safari and InnerSea Discover Cruises provided this travel experience.

I know, it’s not the usual snorkeling scenario.
Like Barbara I may keep my snorkeling for some more tropical waters but the starfish look pretty

We couldn’t believe at how colorful the starfish were.
