Getting Last Pix for Photo Book
The last couple of cruise days flew by so quickly. We stopped in Juneau for a day
— it’s a city with a good bit of Alaskan charm. Took some photos there that will tell the story in my cruise memory book. Then on to Victoria, British Columbia for a delightful day in this beautiful city with a distinct British flavor. Then back to Seattle. Then home.

Then make up a photo memory book that can be distributed by e-mail (using the free online flipping-book version) to the teacher and all parents in your child’s class. Parents who can’t be there for the first day of school will be extremely appreciative. continue reading
