The ship is currently docked in Ketchikan, A float plane is missing and an emergency signal has been received at 1400 feet in Misty Fjords. It had been confirmed that 5 passengers from the ship were onboard. It was not a ship tour but private excursion. The weather is poor and they are not able to get rescue craft in by air . Departure has been delayed. Thank you in advance for good thoughts 💔🙏 🙏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, you couldn't really know, but we lost her suddenly 10 years ago to a congenital aneurysm. I miss her every day. She is the lady with the white glasses on the right, and our "mutual" gastro doc is the 1st guy on the left. . What a lovely group of people! Sorry about your friend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not going to being a problem for the folks on this thread. I am sure all are concerned for those missing.

All three grandkids were along as we spent the day at Lake Erie. Even our lunch place was a repeat, but the kids enjoy this place. Somehow, building these were much easier when they were smaller. They take so much more sand now. PA grandson was practicing his balance Even granddaughter had a little balance. It was a beautiful day with calm water. Time to recharge to get ready for the next adventure. Can’t believe only a week remains till we take him home. All my years of going to the beach and playing in the sand I have never seen or thought about building a sand car! How fun is that!! Now I want to make one🤩🧜♀️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe trip. Thank you. Those huge trucks on the road are menacing.

jagsfan Posted August 6, 2021 #25091 Share Posted August 6, 2021 So many of us have flown on float planes to visit Musty Fjords! The exhilaration on takeoff, the excitement of seeing Alaska at its most beautiful. I am so sorry this day ended like it did. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy every moment, it was 18 months for us when we saw our grandkids over memorial day, saw them last week again, now with delta they are back in quasi lockdown. Need this all to be over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so intent on congratulating John on his birthday, that I didn't read the other posts until now. I've done the same flight, and agree with @jagsfan . However, DH wouldn't hear about boarding such a plane ["at least one of us should remain in order to take care of the kids!"], and waited patiently on the ground.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No survivors, 5 pax plus pilot . Ship will depart later this evening. Sad news and prayers for the family. But on the flip side, those people left this world doing something they loved. I pray their end was quick and painless. My mom, who was in her mid 90's passed away in June. Her last four months in this world were a nightmare for her. If I had a choice of how I go, I hope it would be quick and painless, doing something I loved, rather than what she went through, even if it was few years earlier. Right after a hole-in-one on the eleventh hole at the Old Course at St. Andrews would be my first choice. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
