12/12/09



The sun has temporarily returned to Juneau and with it amazing views! Our daylight hours have decreased to somewhere around 6 hours. Today we took advantage of the weather and headed out the road to see the views. We explored Eagle Beach and watched the sunset. It is amazing the colors that you see. At one point it looked as if the water were bright orange...beautiful!
Our other fun adventure of the day was Breakfast with Santa hosted by the Coast Guard and Military Family association. The kids got to sit on Santa's lap and tell him what they wanted.

The sun visits Juneau


So after 3 weeks of short days with rain, snow and heavy cloud cover we finally get to see some blue sky. My goal today was to get the family out the road to take some pictures, Juneau is absolutely breathtaking with clear skies. Especially with all the snow capped mountains. Unfortunately mommy is not feeling all that well and totally crashed after Hockey this afternoon. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.
Well the Christmas decorations are up here at Casa de Versaw. We even have some presents under the tree. I am hoping to wrap and ship all of our outgoing gifts this week. Hope everyone is doing well. The picture of the day is Little A racing Santa at the ice rink, very fun!
