Alaskan Adventure
(Day 5, Return to Anchorage)

Unfortunately, we had to return the first RV to exchange for another one because there was a conflict in scheduling by Alexander's RV.  From a 31 foot RV, we moved into a 26 foot class A vehicle.  This cost us one day in travel that could have been spend doing other things.  However, we made the best of it and visited Ship Creek, another terminal fishery in the City of Anchorage.  As it turned out, the king salmon were still running in Ship Creek and there were a lot of people fishing.  In Alaska, they recommend you bring your own rock to stand on.  This is called combat fishing.  Greg took a quick movie of the crowd along the bank:
