After a 5 hour wait to get the new RV, we were back on
the road again. It was July 1. On to Seward, a small fishing
village on the East side of the Kenai Peninsula. We found Seward
to be a very friendly town. We stayed in the Edgewater Hotel, not
far from Lowell Creek, another terminal fishery. A crowd of people
here were attempting to snag king salmon, a legal method of taking fish
in the salt water in this area. This is another combat fishing zone.
The water in this stream comes from a waterfall next to
the road. Here is a picture of the kids next to the falls:
We fished here unsuccessfully for an hour or so before returning to the hotel room. Crystal managed to find some rainbow feet gloves and Jennifer wanted a pair as well.
Crystal and Jennifer managed to bond quite well during
vacation, even though Jennifer was a brat at times and drove us all nuts.
We went back to the mouth of Lowell Creek to take some pictures. I managed to capture this Bald Eagle in pursuit of someone's fish. Neither of them managed to get dinner.
I also managed to capture this same eagle perched in the
tree. The telephoto did a good job condidering the distance.
Here's another of the same bird.
At one point, the eagle was suspended in the wind.
