    First thing that popped in my head after hearing about the whale snot 🐋 💨 🤢 was Tom Hanks in "Castaway" being sprayed by the whale as he laid sleeping on the raft to wake him for the ship coming up and I thought "Yep, that would have woke me up too!". Good thing he didn't lick his lips after getting snot wash on him! lol! I was gonna say that this video was super awesome but I'll just leave it at awesome so I don't sound over excited! lol! 😁

    Too bad UA-cam doesn't have scratch & sniff as we could all smell whale snot. Been to Mendenhall Glacier but didn't make it to the falls, thank you. Great video as usual. You two are such a great couple. Safe safe.

    Wow, you sure got your money's worth on that whale watching tour! And that waterfall, surprised how close you can get, it was pretty spectacular. Enjoy your videos and wish you the best!

    So you did the whale watch through the tour company and then explored Mendenhall on your own and not part of a tour? I want to spend more time at Mendenhall and the combo tours only seem to give you an hour there which wouldn’t be enough to see the Falls up close. How much was the car rental?

      Our tour bus took us to mendenhall glacier after the whale watching, but it was raining and we knew were were coming back the next day anyways so we passed on it. I think you're right, it was only an hour there or something like that. We found an electric car rental on Turo and it was about $75 per day. Rentals are kind of expensive in Juneau

    Your drone footage was sooooo good in this one- glad you grabbed a new one in Iceland!

      Thanks! Yeah the new drone quality is unreal. We had to upgrade our main camera too to match up with it!

    When did you go to Juneau? August or September? We want to go June, and wonder if we can see whales.

    Great video! We are going there on a cruise end of September. Hoping we could book a whale watching tour, too. The drone footage is incredible. Do you need a permit to fly a drone in Alaska?

    • @TheAwkwardTourists
      @TheAwkwardTourists  2 роки тому +1

      You do not need a permit in Alaska, You just have to follow the normal rules (don't fly near airports/ military bases or other no fly dones / stay under 400ft. etc...)
