Nice easy relaxing day. Watched for whales but didn't see any. We did see some cruise ships go by on there way back from Skagway.
Molly and I took an early morning stroll to Portage Point and on the way back we talked to a lady who had her lawn chair set up and her job was to watch for whales while they are working on the harbor. If she sees one she can stop the construction until they clear out. She said she liked her job when the weather was nice.
Visited the Eagle Heritage center and watched a video and saw great displays of wildlife and some live bald eagles. Of course we have been closer to wild eagles in the last few days.
Drove up to Lake Chilkoot as we heard that there were bears feeding on fish there. We didn't see any bears, but we did see some eagles and a guy sitting on a fish ladder counting salmon. Looks like a nice job for a couple of hours something like watching for whales.
The camp ground around the lake was really nice. No hook-ups, but nice wooded spaces with lake views.
We went back to camp to get laundry done and supper made. Aris and I went to the IGA and bought two bags of groceries for $72.
We went back to Lake Chilkoot in the evening to look for more bears again. Still no bears, but the lake was still beautiful and we saw an eagle on a rock eating a salmon. Worth the drive.
