Day 32 - Soldotna

Guess what! We woke up to rain! And more rain, and more rain!
We slept late and eased into the day. Went to Soldotna for lunch and a Safeway visit. Then into Kenai but we had no real interest in getting out of the truck because of the weather. It was still raining.
Went back to an area on the Kenai River to watch the salmon fishers but we saw no action there either. Took a different way back and we were rewarded with sightings of 6 or 7 moose.
Drove down to the village of Ninilchik on the beach and we saw a bunch of eagles feeding on the low tide.




Aris is frying some halibut for dinner and the rain has finally let up.
Bill, Cathy, Molly and I went down to the beach again and there were at least a dozen eagles on the beach and in the trees. They were talking back and forth to each other. That is not something that you see everyday! Unless you live in Ninilchik Alaska! The trawlers were drifting in the calm seas and a sea otter was relaxing on the evening tide.







A lazy day. Tomorrow we are going back to Anchorage.
