Ferry to Ketchikan

I boarded ferry about 2am. As I deposited my hazardous gas cans into the paint locker, I headed up to the purser's counter to get the cabin. MV Columbia, my ferry boat for this leg of the trip is older than MV Kennicott and little more luxurious. Same type of the cabin, roomette, was 100% better on Columbia vs. Kennicott. I had my own private bathroom and sink as well as clothing rack with hangers and power outlets. I went immediately to sleep. Little after noon we arrived to our first stop, Sitka. Sitka used to be the capital city of Alaska before Juneau existed and was cultural center in the Russian days.
