Man Down!

I took a 4 hour boat tour down the gulf of Alaska to Resurrection Bay.

On the way, we passed several marine animals. As you can see here, this otter was ready to pose for pictures. They like to lay on their backs to conserve energy while they swim.

Next we saw a rock full of resting sea lions. I never realized how massive these animals were.

Then we came to this bank. Look at all the different birds. They all get along pretty well with each other, until a Eagle come around. Eagles like to eat smaller birds like these. So they freak out when an eagle comes flying by.

This eagle was high in the sky.

We eventually landed on Fox Island. 

Here we had lunch. It was an all you can eat salmon and prime rib buffet. Plus some King Red Crab legs. Absolutely Delicious!

yummy

I took a picture of the rocks, because a lady made this comment on them. The kids were skipping rocks and she said, “Do you ever stop and wonder how it took hundreds of years for that one rock to wash up on the shore?” Thought it was a deep observation.

Here's where the story gets a bit “SHAKY”. So, as some of you know, I get really bad motion sickness. So before the trip, I took some Zofran to stop the nausea. Little did I know that whales were going to come across our paths and make huge rocking waves. To say the least, I spent the second have of the boat trip in the bathroom :-( Lindy was able to take a few pictures of the whales, why I was dying. LoL

All in all, it was a good trip. And I am happy to be back on solid ground!

As Always, With Affection
