Look Ma, I’m on top of the world!!! Does anyone know what movie that is from? I probably should say does anyone NOT know what movie that is from? That would be from the movie the Titanic and is is a relevant quote for today’s blog and for tomorrow’s post also. You hear me talk about going outside your comfort zone a lot. Usually, I am talking about fashion when I say that. Today, However, I am talking about my comfort zone and that would be heights.
I am terrified of heights! I hate flying and I don’t even like staying in hotels that are above the 8th or 9th floor. I really hate watching my children on rides at the fair or amusement parks. I will have to turn my head away from watching them ride something or my stomach starts somersaulting. So riding the tram up to Mount Roberts which overlooks the city of Juneau was definitely outside of my comfort zone. The tram is one of the most vertical tramways in the world and it rises 1800 ft.d up to the mountain top.
Holy Moley, that is really high. You can see the City of Juneau below us, really far below us. Lol! You have no idea how hard it was for me to even stand this close to the wall to take the picture. Ashleigh and Joe kept saying, “Come closer, come closer.” Hahaha!
So, what do you wear to go on a tram ride? I am glad you asked. Haha! It was so pretty today but it was still cool so you need to layer. I have on a 3/4 sleeve v-neck shirt from Covered Perfectly. (Here is where I wore it last 02/16) I wore a tie-dye top that I bought when I went to San Diego this past April. It is made by a company called Lovestitch. See here.
Silver jewelry was the choice for a tram ride. Actually, I didn’t bring much jewelry with me to Alaska. I only brought a silver necklace and a gold necklace and that was pretty much all I brought. My silver knot earrings are called Anyssa. The matching necklace is the Abigail and it is 21″ long. I like to layer my necklaces so I also wore the Colleen with the “S” monogram. Go to www.plunderdesign.com/taniastephens and choose any party that has “tania” in the name. Lady Baltimore is the resident Bald Eagle at the top of Mount Roberts. She was injured in the wild and has one eye that was put out. She also had a damaged wing so she can’t fly in a straight line anymore. It was really cool getting to see her up close.
I just thought you might want to see how pretty the view was. Look how tiny the cruise ships look from the tram.
I didn’t have a giveaway this month yet. I have been so busy traveling that I forgot. So let’s have a giveaway. I would love to hear where everyone would like to visit one day. If money was no object where would you go? For some reason, I think I would love to visit Tuscany one day. Comment below to be entered in a drawing for a free Active Hydration Serum from Rodan + Fields. I have become so “hooked” on this product that I can’t even begin to tell you how much.
Do you know what my number one referrer page is? It is Pinterest! I truly appreciate every time you “pin” a picture. Heck, pin ALL the pictures if you want. Lol! Also, if you would like to share my posts on Facebook or Twitter, I would appreciate that. It helps get my blog out to more people, and I am sure you just want to spread the entertaining sayings I have. Lol! The comment section is at the end of the post, so keep scrolling. I look forward to reading all the comments, they make my day.
Beginning stages of planning a trip to the Panama Canal area. A birthday gift for my to be 60 year old husband. His turn to choose as we to were in Alaska last July for my 50th. Didn’t do the tram ride but did do a float plane. Cruised with UnCruise rather than the big boys.
Tanya, I’m with you! I don’t do heights either!! My dream trip would be a European tour. England, Ireland, Spain, France and Italy….it would take a whole summer!
I would really love to visit Egypt! How amazing would it be to see the Pyramids?! Love all your pics of Alaska and Alaska is one of my want-to-visit places as well. Enjoy the trip!
I would love to visit Israel and Petra in Jordan! Is that Spanish moss hanging from the trees there? It looks green in the photos. The Spanish moss I’ve seen around here and in Louisiana is gray. Just wondering.
Would love to go to Australia one day.
Thanks for the beautiful pictures of Alaska and your family pictures. I would love to go visit Positano.

Actually, that line was spoken by James Cagney in “White Heat”, 1949. Barbara
If money was no object I would go on an Europe River Cruise
