Len and I woke up today (Thurs, 7/30) and saw the glacier mountains surrounding Seward for the first time. The fog lifted and our jaws dropped! Pics attached of the view we saw from our campsite this morning. It didn't last very long, tho'. By the time we left Seward (about 4 p.m.), it was rainy and foggy again.
We left Seward and headed over towards the other side of the Kenai Peninsula this afternoon. About half way there (between Soldotna and Kasilof) we spotted a HUGE bull moose in a marshy area alongside the road. (pics attached) He was the highlight of our journey today.
We arrived in Ninilchik about 8 p.m. this evening. We arranged for a halibut fishing charter in the morning. It's a 6 hour fishing trip with a 5 a.m. departure! Those of you that know me, know that this will be a challenge (not the fishing...the departure time!). I've got everything ready for the morning. Now, it's just a matter of getting to bed and getting some sleep. It doesn't help matters that it stays light until 11 p.m. at night up here! Time for bed....
Good night!
Faith, I am finally on and traveling with you...backwards... what incredible pictures of the moose. what a great adventure! Jan
