Wendy Lynn Staats • December 22, 2021
Hello, dear listener! It’s been a bit since we published a “traditional episode” of this audio podcast, and we want you to know that we’re still here and we’re still at it!
This episode is a quick “hello” and a little retrospective of what has gone on in our world since the last episode was published.
We are so excited to welcome the travel professionals, families, and industry partners of the Western Association of Travel Agencies (WESTA) to one of Alaska's most iconic port cities. You've arrived in Ketchikan, a place where misty rainforest meets the sea, where totem poles stand alongside historic boardwalks, and where the stories of gold rush pioneers and the colorful characters of Creek Street are still very much alive. There's truly nowhere else like it in the world. We hope your time here is more than just a conference. Whether you're exploring the historic Creek Street district, taking in the natural beauty of Southeast Alaska, or getting a taste of the local haunted history on our complimentary Ketchikan Ghost Walk , this city has a way of staying with you long after you sail away.
