The Best Of The Best – Alaska

Alaska was fun but now I am in Mexico. However, before I move on and start blogging about taco’s, enchiladas, and cerveza I put together a little video of the best of the best from Alaska. Enjoy!

Second Best

Sometimes your second choice turns out to be great. Let me tell you what happened. My friends and I arrived in Victoria wanting more of Ferris Oysterbar because we loved it so much. When we got there the wait was one hour. I asked the lady what we should do because there was no room at the bar for us to sit and have a drink while we waited. So I suggested she take our names and we would be back in about 40 minutes. She would not take our name. She basically wanted a group of six to wait on the staircase (you have to walk up stairs to get to the restaurant) for the hour until something opened up. A little annoyed and frustrated we left and went for a drink at a place down the block called Sauces. Sauces is a cool bar/restaurant with a good drink menu. After an hour and a drink or two we headed back to Ferris.

I have not been to Victoria British Columbia a lot yet. I just started my next contract on the ship and was recommended by two friends to head to Ferris’ Upstairs Oysterbar. I only have a couple of weeks left on these Alaska runs and I can’t wait to go back. Victoria is a fun little city with lots of restaurants and bars. Hope I get a chance to try as many places as I can.
