of Alaska. A little misty in the morning, but for the rest of the day the
clouds decided to move on down the valley.
This is another city/island that is only accessible by boat or plane. Most
of the downtown area is built on pilings and sits above the water, no
basements here.
Took a great hike in the woods, the things growing there were amazing. Saw
some bear prints and evidence of a bear eating on a skunk plant, but no
bears. There were walkways built so one could watch the bears feast on the
salmon - too early -I would love to see it! The Alaska Raptor Center was
located at the end of the trail and I got to see an eagle up close.
The eagle was injured and would not have survived if allowed to go free. He
has led a good life though, he has been at the center for more than 30
years, having daily room service of choice fish and rabbits.
Walked around town until it was time to board the ship and waved goodbye to
Alaska.
