June15th

Day Trip to Seward via the Turnagain Arm Parkway...known as a scenic byway, we agree.

On the way to Seward we saw what we thought was Palmer Glacier.

Once we reached our destination of the little, coastal town of Seward, we scouted out some camping spots! Next time we will stay right on the water front ($15 to camp, $30 if you want an electric spot). It was about 60 degrees and very breezy, I don't think electric is necessary. Once in Seward we did the tourist things...shop and eat.

You got to love beer-thirty on a Monday.
Ahhh, the all fried lunch...halibut chunks, clams, shrimp, and fries. And you might as well wash it down with some frosty beverages.

The Trail River campground in the Chugach National Forest will definitely be on the list when we return to Alaska. It was stunning, tall mountains surrounded a huge aqua blue lake (Kenai Lake). A perfect place for an evening fire.

On the return trip to the RV...the scenery was equally as beautiful.

We laughed and laughed some more when we encountered this fella. Apparently, he had way too many Red Bull and vodka. He has wings.

We landed at the RV about 10:00pm and had a snack by the fire before going to bed.
