The Point in Ketchikan Alaska. Plan to visit if you are there this summer.

With traveling to Alaska 12 times prior and headed for my 13th time in August, I’m ready to discover something new.  In the past, I had read a little on The Point, however, didn’t know how I would get there, so I didn’t make it there my last time.

This time, I thought I would check it out more.  I discovered, it says on their webpage, that they have complimentary shuttle.  That did it for me, I want to go there !

And after communicating back and forth, with The Point on FB Messenger, I learned, “The Point is a destination and a must see” !  Ok, I’m ready for August and venturing and seeing something new !

I’m a picture (art) freak.  Upon looking at their website, I already know what I want to buy.  I want the Regal Princess up close to the glacier !

I also like “Celebration of the Sea”.

The webpage talks of … The Point Band plays Wednesdays and Fridays 11:00AM to 1:00PM.  My ship is arriving on Wednesday, so I hope they continue to offer this when I am there in August.

They also have a daily menu and daily soup.  I’m excited !

It’s also a “knitters paradise”.  They have lots and lots of yarn !

Here’s their webpage.  Sometimes, it opens to the wrong page.  Apparently a spam tries to take it over (?).

Check out the reviews.

They are on facebook too, listing their daily soups !

If Ketchikan is on your list in 2014, I highly suggest you contact them the day before arriving (or before your cruise ship sails) and reserve the shuttle, to come get you !  I know I can’t wait till August !
