I am haaving trouble getting my pictures on the blog again. I may have too many pics on the computer and not enough memory to up load them. To day we cruised Prince william sound for 110 miles. We went to The Colombia glacier and the Mears glacier. We really got up close and personel with the Mears. We saw all kinds of wild life and among them several hump back whales and puffin birds. They fed us 2 meals on the trip. I was very lucky, the water was like glass. I have lots of pics. Maybe i can get them on the blog next time. We have a free day here tomorrow then head toward Ankorage. When we get there I will be able to get on line again.
Besides the Exon Valdez oil spill this area experienced an earth quake 9.2. We had tour guide who was living here then 1964 she was 12 years and still has vivid memories of the quake. Her family have lived here since the 1920s. When the devries was cleared up they burned the town down because it was a dangerous area to rebuild in. The built the current town 2 miles down the road.
Our RVs are parked on the waters edge. The fireboats did a parade spraying water for about 10 mminutes they said something about fireworks at 11 pm. It is 20 to 10 and it is still day light. Some one said that they save the fire works for New years because it gets dark then.
I wont bore you with any more stuff for now.
will try for pics next time
