Return to Seward

So we returned to Seward, to our same fabulous site looking out into Resurrection Bay.

We visited nearby Exit Glacier.  You can hike up to the edge of this retreating glacier, which comprises just one part of the Harding Ice Field.

Took a nice boat cruise on the bay, where we viewed mountain goats, puffins, and saw the edge of the Kenai Fjord National Park.  One of the few sunny days since we arrived in Alaska.  We felt mildly sea sick as we sailed along the edge of the Alaska Bay.
 

Chatted with a couple whom we met at Park Sierra  3,000 miles away early last year.  Small nation that.   Clancy took exception to the presence of their dog in our trailer, even tho he had played with him during their last meeting.  Must have been wearing a different cologne.

And otherwise waited to leave for our reserved spots at Denali National Park.  We depart tomorrow, expecting to arrive two days later.
