and just uphill from Historic Juneau (and the waterfront where all the cruise ships dock!) When it was built in 1906, by gold rush pioneer John Olds, it was one of the grandest homes in all of Juneau, high on the hillside, over looking the town and its bustling waterfront. We had the top floor suite to ourselves, with views in 3 directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#090d8e\"><strong>Wandering around Juneau on foot<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>On Thursday, after sleeping in (winding down) we wandered around Historic Juneau, the Capitol District, and the waterfront&#8230;easy to stop back at our B&amp;B.  In our wandering, we:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>took a mid-morning <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#090d8e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Mount Roberts Tramway<\/mark><\/strong> trip up Mount Roberts (at ~1,800&#8242;). It&#8217;s one of the most vertical tramways in the world.  We hung out drinking coffee and enjoying the view, watched the movie in the theater, and hiked on the close-by loop trails before returning to the Juneau waterfront base station.  In the evening, after dinner, we rode up the Tramway again for the ride and another view, returning only 30 minutes later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>caught the 1:30 tour of the <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#046969\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Alaska State Capitol<\/mark><\/strong> (#40). It&#8217;s not the most exciting building, and being \u201cjust\u201d in a city block, on a hill, it&#8217;s hard to get a good picture&#8230;and NO LAWN! The tour was informative and entertaining, from a proud Alaskan. Interesting tidbit, Juneau is the largest US capital city by land area, at 3,255 square miles, but is only the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> largest city overall, after Sitka, at 4,815 square miles.  It has to do with how Alaska defines city limits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>visited the <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#090d8e\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Juneau-Douglas City Museum<\/mark><\/strong>, across the street from the capitol and just down the hill from our B&amp;B.
