28 June 2018.  Fresh Salmon Dinner.

While we were in Juneau – we were lucky enough to find that  XP #9 owners(Sissi and Günter) were in town.  They had just gotten back from a four year adventure to South America.  They are actually commercial fishermen and were living on their boat, the Keta, in the harbor.  They invited us over and fed us a wonderful, freshly caught King Salmon dinner.  It was very interesting to learn about all the intricacies of commercial fishing here in Juneau, and all the things that this community does to ensure the longevity of the salmon and their environment.

Sissi and Günter’s boat, Keta. The boats were really packed in at the dock, many were “double parked”

Part of our wonderful dinner – Yum!
We saw a Tyrannosaurus Rex running around on the dock
