travelbuds Posted November 25, 2007 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi, Our ship will be in Juneau on a Sunday. Wondering if much closes down (independent excursions, shops, buses, restaurants, etc.) or is is pretty much like any other day? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Posted November 25, 2007 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Nothing closes except government offices and banks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mii Posted November 25, 2007 #3 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Believe me all of the shops, excursions, etc are open. Since Alaska has such a short cruising period from May-Sept. they do want the business. Do not worry, have a great time. marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qiangf2 Posted December 6, 2007 #5 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Unless you are going towards the end of september, all the shops should stay open even on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chat Noir Posted December 6, 2007 #6 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I have ran across one or two shops which close on Sunday on our cruises, but definitely rare. One was a soap shop I was going to just pop into for a second. Very surprised to see find it closed especially as it was between the tram and downtown Juneau... a highly traveled tourist area. No big deal as Juneau certainly has plenty of registers cha-chinging on Sundays!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get there earlier next year. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was, it is closed on Sunday, ships or no ships!!!:) My much beloved grand-daddy would've told me I had no business shopping on Sunday anyway and keeping those shopkeepers away from church!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
