07/04/2010 - Sunday (posted 07/04)







Today we drove from Homer to Anchorage.
Once again the mileage driven were close to 250 miles.
On our way today we stopped again at several wonderful sights. We also stopped at Portage Valley, home of several glaciers. Unfortunately the main glacier is no longer viewable from the parking lot and you must take a boat to it. we opted not to, but chose to take a walk to Bryon Glacier.
The photographs above are in a somewhat reverse order. The bottom photograph is from the deck of the cabin in Homer, taken about 11:15 last night - I have not touched the lighting, it was still bright enough to take a photo. Actually the light lasted most of the night. We were up until after midnight and it was still light out. Homer gets somewhere around 19 hours of 'sunlight' this time of the year.
The top left photograph is of Bryon Glacier. the remaining photograph is of the two ladies in our traveling party playing 'snow angles'.
We arrived in Anchorage late afternoon, and after checking in did a little walking around of the old town.
