A Sunny Day to Leave Valdez
It’s actually clear and the sun is out.....WOW! Ed and Frances are driving into town this morning to check things out,......we went last night and were not all that impressed. Unless you are interested in doing a cruise or a fishing charter there is not that much to do in the Town of Valdez. Quite frankly the smell of rotting fish is starting to get to me. We ended up not leaving till around 3:00 Along the road leaving the park we stopped to photograph the thousands of fish trying to navigate out of the ocean and up the stream to spawn.
We got some great shots of the scenery leaving Valdez and what should have taken us about 2 hours took us over 4 because we stopped at every turn out. We also got to see the pipeline up close and personal.
We drove back as far as Glen Allen and then parked for the night. Nobody felt like cooking dinner so we went to the Caribou Hotel and Restaurant for dinner. Best Liver and Onions I’ve had in years........and reasonable too! We walked there and back so it was also guilt free!
