- We take a short walk through Juneau, Alaska. We walk up Franklin St., the shopping area, past the Red Dog saloon. We walk to the top of the hill and then down to the Governor's Mansion.

We lived there 1971-74. For Juneau, this was a typical beautiful summer day! Things sure have changed. Not sure if we want to go back for our 50th anniversary or not.
It is crowded on some days. 5 or 6 ships in port. 10,000 visitors. Thank you for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
Wow i impress you comment
Thank you for the video. The best one I've seen of Juneau.
Thank you very much! Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe.
you almost went down the steps that would have taken you to my old house ,though its no longer there on Willoughby Ave .I was able to see the Governor's Mansion from my home. that was in1963 when our house caught fire and we moved back to Fremont California, big difference.
Wow! Small World. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
Thank you. Will be going to Juneau next week. Now I know more of what to expect.
We are too! Watch for our live broadcasts from Alaska. We have videos of most of the ports in Alaska on our TH-cam channel if you want to check them out. Thanks for your comments and thanks for subscribing to our channel.
@@PortMonkeys We will be flying in on Alaska Airlines. We are not taking a cruise into Juneau. I will look for your videos. Enjoy your trip!
Thanks for the Memories. I worked 7 summers in Alaska. It is nice to see what has changed and what has remained the same.
Our pleasure! It all looked the same to us.
It was cool rewatching this after my own visit and recognizing a lot of the places I walked by.
What you DON'T see in this video or ANY Juneau video for that matter is how many homelesses and tweakers hang out in the tourist area, a lot of them very aggressive.
We were taking pictures of some houses on Seward St, across from the Capitol and some tweaker came out of his house and just stared at us, then started yelling at us that we're stupid for coming up there during a pandemic. I was deliberately watching this video to see if you walked by it too, but it looks like you just missed him.
I'm honestly surprised you didn't at the very least encounter a street argument. Maybe, it's because I was there for a whole week, which increased my chances of seeing something happened, but it wasn't just an isolated incident. This was an everyday occurance. We even saw people shooting up in broad daylight. I knew Alaskan cities had a bad reputation, but I had no idea it was THIS bad. I can't imagine anyone wanting to move here or bring their kids here for vacation. I'm not even exaggerating. This is the worst I've seen it anywhere. It's really bad.
We did not see any of that when we were in Juneau. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
@@PortMonkeys That figures. You're not the only one. I'm starting to think maybe they tidy the place up when cruise ships are in town. But reading comments from locals, on the very limited reports that exist, this seems to be a major problem.
The issue is, there is a homeless shelter right in the middle of the tourist district. A lot of them are cool, but there are others who aren't the best people.
On our first morning, there was a homeless guy sleeping in a tent right on the wharf.
I already did 😉
With so much natural beauty around you I'm surprised that's all you decided to look at.....kinda
This is part why we moved!
That ladie had doodoo all up on her back
That’s funny! Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
That “big ” raven was just a baby. Ravens in Juneau grow to be as high as my knee.
Good to know. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
An excellent tour of Alaska's capital city - only 3 ways to get there (aircraft, boat, or born there). Your walking tour is great and you got alot of the great points of interest in town detailed - a very great job. As someone who worked there a summer a long time ago the only thing I would add is that for those who can, to walk up to the top of Mount Roberts (a 2.5 to 4 hour hike) and take the tram down (which was free to take down at least years ago). As someone else commented this post is one of the best of Juneau.
We were going to go up Mt. Roberts, but it was raining se we decided not to go. Next time. Thank you for your comments and we hope you are a subscriber.

Welcome aboard! Thanks for your comments and for subscribing.
Have you been to Juneau previously? Wondered why you didn't explore Mendenhall Glacier or Tongass National Forest?
We have been to Juneau and Mendenhall Glacier.We had planned to take the Mt. Roberts Tramway but it was raining. Thank you! Don't forget to subscribe.
Hey what cruise did you take to stop at all these ports in Alaska
We were on Holland America's Maasdam on a 21 day Alaska cruise. It was round trip from San Francisco, CA. We stopped in 14 different ports and visited several glaciers. This year they are doing a similar 14 day cruise. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
Great video. May I ask when you were there?
We were there in June of 2019. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
Where's Nimbus? In the mid 80's, at the site of where the Seward statue is now, there used to be a huge, green, modern sculpture called "Nimbus" in front of the Capital building. You either loved it or you hated it (I guess the haters won out). I used to live in a house just a few doors up from the Governor's mansion on Calhoun (you almost walked past it, but changed direction). Amazing how 'built up' the dock areas along Franklin are now - of course, most of that wasn't even there even in the 80's when I lived there - including the Red Dog, btw, which is a completely fabricated, 'modern' structure. Juneau is a beautiful place to live, however.
We checked online and it says in front of the State Library on Whittier St. we don’t know where that is or if it is current. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
I'm a photographer in Alaska When I was Living in Juneau in the giant apartment complexity passed When That house next to the church Caught on fire on fire And when they actuallyThey built the devils weed Brewery Which is called thatBecause they use devil's weed.

@@PortMonkeys I miss my old ship nieuw amsterdam
When our ship stopped in Juneau, I saw none of this because we took the float plane trip over the 5 glaciers---
Everybody had a window seat-- about 14 people--- it was well worth it!
That sounds like fun! Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
A must do in Juneau: visit Mendenhall glacier with visitor center and walk to Nugget Falls, fly over Juneau ice field, visit 2 museums, enjoy the view from top of State office building and library, taste fudge and see newly installed Aquilleans along the coast. If you are lucky, you can see biannual native Celebration. Say hi to Patsy Ann statue. I love Juneau and visited many times.
We've been to Mendenhall and some of the other sites on your list. We used the bathroom upstairs in the library. Thanks for your comments and please subscribe to our channel.

Those stairs would lead to the top of the tram.

Devils club brewing co. 😂 Really, you had to make reference to the DEVIL! My suggestion is put the camera down and just enjoy the fact that God has blessed you with the ability to travel. I’ve been to Alaska and my wife is actually in Juneau right now. Alaska is an incredibly beautiful state. Your video…..was boring! We’ve all seen paved streets

Prada ? So sad. Who the fuck goes toAlaska to shop.
Not us, but lots of people do. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe.
I doubt this is true but every single building looks like a locally owned mom n pop shop/restaurant!!
We're not certain about ownership and we try to avoid the chains like Effy and Diamonds International. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.
What a waste of time
OK.
