Taking on the "Fairweather" at Narrowest Place |
Eagle Dropped his Fish and Flying Away |
Eagle Swimming with his Fish |
Wonderful day. Over 60 degrees. Heading for the real Peril Straits, which is a very narrow pass with names like Kakul Narrows, Neva, Deadmans Reach, Salisbury Sound, Whitestone Narrows and Serguis Narrows. Put that together with a huge Alaskan Ferry called the “Fairweather” coming right behind you at the very narrowest point and it’s very exciting. Meanwhile we’ve seen an eagle swimming with a large fish, a whale sounding and sea lions harassing our dog. There is never a dull moment. Just before arriving in Sitka we saw local children swimming in the ocean. Harbour Master gave us easy spots and we walked the dogs and went up to pay the thirty-five cents a foot. Met the Harbour Master a delightful fellow with lots of information. David and I launched our motorbike and toured around town. A pleasant place with lots of friendly people. We all went out for dinner. Don’t ask David about the dinner.
