July 28, 2007 – Travel to Seward

Such beauty!!!

Our travels today took us on the Seward Highway. This highway parallels Turnagain Arm and then crossed the Kenai Mountains.

Pictures of both:


The tide was going out and we saw more of the mud flats – Scary!! I could see how people die in them.

We arrived at Seward and are staying in the city campground. Resurrection Bay is about 100 feet from the front of the motor home and the views are incredible. (We hope to get a space tomorrow that is about 25 feet from the bay.) The bay and the mountains are on one side of us and the mountains are on the other – Wow. I could live in this town.



We strolled thru the new part of town with all the boats and shops and charters and then to the historic part of town. We had a few beers in the Yukon Bar (local place – really neat) and then dinner at Thorns Showcase Lounge where we had an interesting conversation with Kate – a 3rd generation Sewardan. What fun!!

Another wonderful day!
