Airship - A few days in Juneau

A quick visit to Mendenhall Glacier © Laura Domela

We spent five nights in Juneau after finishing up the flotilla. We've got another guest coming in to join us, and thought we'd get some boat projects, laundry, and provisioning done, while exploring Juneau a little more and revisiting some of our favorite spots. We shared a rental car with friends (and flotilla participants) Julie and David, which made everything quite a bit easier.

The Sand Bar & Grill is out of town a little ways, but absolutely worth the drive (or cab ride, even) — best fish and chips we've ever had. Consistently. Fresh halibut cooked perfectly, great tartar sauce and fries, local beer, and a super nice owner (Gail) who stood and chatted with us for quite a while, giving us lots of fun local info! We found this place during one of our first visits to Juneau and go back every chance we get! This is a particularly funny Yelp review I found, from Justin D: "Trust me, don't ever come here for their quesadillas, you'll regret it. But if you're coming for their fish and chips, it's the best I've ever had. I didn't even care for Halibut until today, but Sand Bar Grill definitely changed my mind. A true hidden gem."
