My husband and I are taking time off from work to take a vacation in our town. At first we thought about using our time off to visit family in the lower 48. We quickly changed our minds when we saw the price of airfare. Then we thought about taking the ferry to Canada or Prince of Whales island to go camping. Then it started raining...I don't really like the rain when my only shelter is a nylon tent. So we decided that we could have a great time relaxing in our own town. It's given us the opportunity to be a tourist in our own town.
Tonight we enjoyed a movie at theTwin Coliseum movie theater. We rarely go to the movies because it's a small theater with only two movies to choose from. Tonight we finally found a movie that we were willing to pay $10 bucks for...why are movies so expensive these days??!
Afterward, we went to the New York Cafe' near Creek Street. It is a cute cafe' in downtown. They serve beer, wine, lattes, cappuccino, etc. They also have great paninis and sandwiches. Around 8pm a funky jazz band started playing and the local crowd started strolling in. The New York Cafe' has a great atmosphere with a cozy Alaskan feel to it. It's a great place to sit and "people watch." So far, I'm enjoying my Ketchikan vacation.
