Whittier, Alaska

Nothing beats mid-summer icy paths !


This is Whittier, this is it. Docked here until 8pm, what the heck are we going to do ?! Only 80 miles from Anchorage but no trips to do and no transport. So checked the docks for ducks, zero and then walked into town that consisted of 6 shops and 4 cafes. The town was packed with fishing boats getting ready for the salmon which was imminent. They were arriving in their droves towing fishing boats. So we went into a gift shop and then found a green space to walk through. Not too bad, gave us a few birds. Then back to the boat, good day to do the laundry, eat and sleep and then eat again !



Bought a fridge magnet from this shop, then saw this outside and wished I hadn't given her my $5 !
