Seward, Alaska
July 6 - July 8, 2016
Left Homer after the 4th of July traffic. Headed towards Seward, our last big Alaska stop before we start our long journey home. Picked up a hitchhiker, backpacker, cutie pie from Switzerland on the Seward cutoff. Andi, 22 years old, cute little blonde that loves to travel. OH my, would I be worried if I were her mom. But she nicely told me that she takes a selfie with everyone that has picked her up and send that to her mom??? OK? She said it makes her mom feel much better. So Bodie is now in a selfie with Andi off to Basil, Switzerland!

As Homer is to Fishing, Seward is to Adventure! Kayaking in the Kenai Fiords National Park, hiking, ziplines, beachcombing, etc. We had a great 5 mile hike in the Lowell Point State Rec Area. Started in the greenest of green trails (more so than the Northern Cascades!) and ended up on a rugged beach with a very fast moving tide that was rising :) Lots of warnings are posted regarding these tides and assuming that many have been rescued due to stupidity.
We spent quite a bit of time in the Seward Brewery at the bar. Great food and such nice waitress’. Went out to Miller’s Landing….what a drive. Thank goodness we didn’t have the trailer with us. That is where we started our hike and a big kayaking area for the experienced kayaker.

| Our last night together |
Our last night with the remains of our “group” was a bitter sweet ending to Seward. Saying goodbye to some of the clan was sad. J & B will be along for the ride south, atlas until we cross Canada into Washington. We had a lovely impromptu potluck dinner, discussing all of our different itineraries. The SUN is out and it’s just beautiful! (and remember it NEVER gets dark). Nancy and I played Yahtzee till late in the evening. One of those 2 out of 7 days of the week where the sun is shining.
