Seward, Alaska

Traveled to Seward today.  Beautiful ride out of Anchorage along the Cook Inlet.  It was mountainous all the way to Seward.  Stopped to see the Portage Glacier and also the Exit Glacier.  Also saw this huge ocean liner in the port of Seward.  The Alaska Railway Station is right around the corner from the ocean liner and will take you to Anchorage, Denali, and Fairbanks.  Missed the red salmon run here into Bear Lake.  The rest of the salmon will not run until the end of August.  The streams are so muddy, we are not sure we will beable to fish. We shall see when we travel to Homer, on the other side of the Kenai.

  1. Is that a picture of the glacier? Aren't they s'pose to be in the ocean? So sad you missed the salmon, fishing along side grizzlies would have been an adventure!
