The Shrine

I decided to take a little road trip about 25 miles from downtown Juneau to The Shrine of St. Therese, Queen and Patroness of Alaska. This really cool little chapel was built in 1938 on a small island connected to the beach by a footpath. As I was walking back from the island to the beach I saw a pod of Killer Whales about 100 yards from the shore breaching and swimming around. Words cannot describe how amazingly beautiful it is up here!
