UNAVAILABLE ON SATURDAY.................
Yep, I'll be gone all day today, Saturday the ninth of June! I am taking the train from Anchorage to Seward and then a cruise out of Seward in Resurrection Bay. If you look at the map above you will see Seward right above the label that says "Southcentral." The train trip from Anchorage (north of Seward) is said to be one of the three most beautiful train rides in America.....sometime you even see beluga whales!
We (my friend, Jane, is going also) are taking a Kenai Fjords 5 hour cruise-we cruise an hour out to Fox Island where we are served a salmon lunch and explore the island for an hour then we get back on the boat and cruise for 4 more hours (this is billed as the "wildlife cruise"). I think this is a real bargain at $79, including lunch....but, it is even a bigger bargain when you work for Southcentral Foundation and get a 30% discount.
Anyway, we leave at 5:45 am and return at 10:30 pm-give or take. Long day.
Saturday night I will download the pictures (it takes forever anymore!) and Sunday I will have them on the blog!
Bon Voyage!
