Cruising Alaska: May/June 2006

Every morning for almost a dozen years, way back in what feels like a previous life, I used to back my semi-trailer into the loading dock at the large warehouse in the centre of this photo. Loaded with 40 tons of sugar, I'd head back to my base warehouse 40 miles out in the Fraser Valley. Looking at the place from the deck of a luxurious cruise ship now is an odd feeling.
