I was initially quite annoyed about our Juneau stop, given that our tour had been cancelled at the last minute due to "insufficient signups", and the fact that the appropriate cruise staff had treated us so badly about it. Still, it all turned out okay - instead of going out and taking a few hundred more pictures, we just wandered the city. It turned out to be a tourist trap of the worst kind, at least in the sections that we could see; one after another you'd see stores for individual luxury goods, such as furs, perfume, jewelry, etc. This lasted until we found a bookstore, and saw a poster advertising a book signing for Michael Chabon, one of my favorite authors (author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay), later that evening! That made this particular stop one of my favorites.
