cruise to the north pole - leaving the docks

the coeur d'alene resort puts on a holiday cruise to the north pole every year and we decided to see what it was all about    was a lot of fun but a rainy day.



leaving from teh dock behind the resort



Grinch was even there to send us along our way.



the docks had lots of display to send us along our way 




more to come tomorrow


ps most of the pictures were taken in the dark, in the rain and on a moving boat so it was a challenge to try to take some good shots.  but  a fun challenge.
