What do I say about today - I don't think there are enough words to describe the beauty we have seen.  We drove from Anchorage to Seward and are staying at a campground called Miller's Landing.  We saw a lot of waterfalls today - just coming down a mountain and they were beautiful.  We only have electricity here but we don't really need anything else.  I am sitting at the table in the camper looking out the door at the ocean and mountains covered with snow.  I was just watching a sea otter play in the water and a bald eagle just flew over.  The beach here is nothing like California;  it is very rocky and hard to walk on and the water is very cold.  It is just beautiful.

Tomorrow we are going on an 8 1/2 hour National Park tour with Kenai Fjords Tours.  We leave Seward at 10 a.m. and are supposed to have a buffet meal at Fox Island as part of the tour.  It should be amazing and, hopefully, we will see some wildlife - I would really like to see a whale and they say that is possible.  I will post some pictures than am going to sit outside and watch the waves.
