Hello, my lovelies! As I said in my previous post, we are stopping in Ketchikan today on our Alaskan journey. Ketchikan is another relatively small city with only 8,000 people. It went for a full day trip over there, and I enjoyed it! It got messy towards the end, but that will be for another post either tonight tomorrow ;) I will let you guess what Ketchikan is best known for ;) Yup, totem poles! If you got it wrong, you suck at looking at pictures LOL! I even got two small ones carved by hand as a souvenir. They are so cute !!! Far from being as tall as those, but those wouldn't fit in my luggage anyway! I know, Canada is also very well known for totem poles, and I travel thousands of miles to see non-Canadian totem poles...while I've never seen a single one in my own country! I'll have to rectify that someday! Oh, by the way, the guy you see in those pictures has been making totem poles for decades. It takes him around 6 to 9 months for a single one. Can you imagine the time and dedication? Most guys get tired of waiting for a girl doing her makeup. You would never get the patience to make those totems haha! There are a bunch of meanings for the animals and symbols, but I forgot most of them LOL Ok, tonight I'll show you some of the wildlife in Ketchikan. And tomorrow, we'll get to the messy part of that day trip !!! I hope you enjoy reading those small anecdotes...I mean, you must be if you read till the end!
