| Welcome to Alaska's 1st City Ketchikan is known to be The Salmon Capital Of The World, it has the world's largest collection of standing totem poles & some say it's North America's rainiest location |
 |
| Our Southeast Aviation DeHavilland Beaver Float Plane arriving for our pick up It was cloudy, but we were happily surprised that there was no rain when we arrived for our flight |
 |
| View of Ketchikan during takeoff The float plane was loud, but the takeoffs & landings were extremely smooth |
 |
| Our pilot, Mark taking us into Misty Fjords National Monument Babbitt even got to co-pilot the plane on the way in...essentially this meant that he got to sit up front |
 |
| View from above Katie took close to 1 million photos; so if you're not bored yet & want to see more, just say the word |
 |
| The O'Babbit's in Misty Fjords National Monument Our excursion also included a stop at this remote dock, where we even saw a lone seal |
 |
| Reserving the last two seats on this flight was a definite highlight of our trip & the Southeast Aviation staff couldn't have been better...four enthusiastic thumbs up in our book |
 |
| Historic Creek Street, which was once home to Ketchikan's Red Light District We got drenched on our way here, but the rain didn't last long... honestly we would have felt cheated if it didn't rain during our visit |

| Babbitt tasting salmon in downtown Ketchikan After walking along Married Man's Trail & watching the salmon climb the fish ladder, Babbitt had to see if the freshest salmon tasted any different to him, but sadly he's still not a fan |
