There's so much to do in this world, too many places to see, and too many people to meet for me to want to stay put. I would love to travel the world and experience different cultures, explore the unknown, meet new people, and help the sick. Traveling brings pleasure in ways that few things can, and for me just thinking about it is not enough. This blog is my way of sharing my experiences with whoever cares to read about it (especially my parents-- love you both) COSTA RICA: September 4, 2008 - TBA 2009 ... full info

Glacier water is the best water.

Cruise Ship

Juneau is huge on tourism during the summer, and we get about 2-5 cruise ships in town each day.

Oystercatcher Bird

I'm not sure if this is an Oystercatcher Bird, but that's what it looks like. Dana and I found this bird as we exploring the island...

West Glacier Trail

We decided to hike the West Glacier Trail in the rain. It was fun. All you need is good company, Xtratuffs, and a raincoat.

Under the Mendenhall Glacier, there was a lake and the sun managed to find its way through.

Gretchen and I were soaked from the rain and the glacier water!

Exploring the Islands

A group of my friends and I went camping on an island, and then we decided to explore in the morning...

Sailing

Cope Park

Douglas Island

My friends and I went to the Douglas 4th of July Parade since we missed the morning parade downtown. Sandy Beach was crowded with delicious food, fun events, and great people.

Janelle, you have some wonderful photos. I found your shots when googling about Juneau. I'm going there in a few weeks--on one of those huge cruise ships.

Great photos!
I wonder if photography is an inherent Quimpo family hobby...just wondering is your mom, my aunt Paz II? or do you even know her?
