The Sea of Icebergs - Day 9

On arrival at Anadyr Adventures we were all eager to set off. First we got kitted out by our guide Spencer, and then went through a few basics. The water ferry arrived at the dock and we loaded on. We had an hour and a half ride out to the start of the kayaking. In ten minutes we were unloaed and in our kayaks. It's amazing how fast time goes when you're having fun. We saw a waterfall, seals playing, and headed up a ...

Will be leaving in the morning I think

Well I know that it has been a long time since I updated, but we had just been sitting around waiting to go fishing again, but it had been raining and we were fogged in so much that we couldn't even see any mountains around us. There wasn't anything to report. Sorry. Our fishing license ran out so we decided to just pull out Sunday morning. We hooked everything up and took off, telling our friends goodbye and headed out. We drove down the road and headed ...

Caught a nice halibut

... 5 of us where from the great metropolis of Midlothian, Tx. How often would that happen? And now to our fishing trip. We have just been waiting around here in Valdez, I mean we have driven through Valdez and checked out the town, that took us all of about 10 mins. We have just been sitting at our campsite enjoying the scenery from right here. We can see glaciers and waterfalls and then we can drive to see the salmon coming in to spawn and then go to the ...

We finally made our destination

... we know that are in Valdez for the summer and we will be going fishing with while we are here, have not been able to go out fishing because of the rain. As we approach Valdez, we come upon the Thompkin's Pass which has glaciers and many waterfalls. It gets cooler as we reach the pass and enter into Valdez. It started sprinkling as we came to the pass and it was 59 degrees. It only sprinkled a little ...

Valdez - July 16-22

... At high tide, the salmon were there by the hundreds right next to the shore. There were about six sea lions feeding on the salmon as well as a few seals. The sea lion would come up out of the water with a fish and shake its head—sure was fun watching this! The eagles would swoop down occasionally; we watched two soar together—spectacular! There is even a waterfall ...

Is it a day to kill time before debarking?

Ok so it was a very hazy day and we could not see much for the majority of the day. A bit too cold to sit on the deck and watch the world go by, so we played a game of Trivial Pursuit, at which I failed miserably. Matt can always outsmart me on the geography and sports questions.<br><br>Around 5pm we reached Harvard Glacier and stayed there quite awhile watching it calve several times. The waves created ...

Update....

... 1 of our shows, which one we don't know yet. So we basically have an audition this Sunday. Wish us luck. :) That's probably enough for now. Miss you all terribly. Feel a bit like we're in a time vortex where time doesn't really exist! I almost feel like when we come home time will have been standing still and everyone will be at the exact same place as they were the day we left...if only... Hope everyone's well and experiencing great things. Love Soph and Andrew

An Alaskan Silver lining

... to be shrouded in dense fog which apparently isn't good fishing weather and then our first few fishing spots produced absolutely no luck with the salmon. To rub it in, some resident sea lions seemed to have no problems catching breakfast. At our third spot, Captain Jim was talking to me on the bridge as we made our first pass by the lighthouse... saying, 'this is the first time I've passed the lighthouse without at least catching one fish'. It was at that ...

Around Valdez

Today was no different than many of the others we have had. We awoke to the sound of rain on the roof. Since it was laundry day, we got moving slowly and finally had the laundry done by lunch time. After lunch we wandered around town doing a few geocaches, one of which took us to the library behind the museum. So we decided to visit the museum while we were there ...

Day 52 Valdez

... her bait, The comment coming from the cabin was " I don't want to catch another fish!" I will not labour further on this, but will suggest she did wind in this next one but it had to be released because it was not the correct season for that species of fish, again she retired to look out from the cabin and watch, leaving a spare rod/space. GEE I am so pleased I hadn't paid for that spot, what a waste of money! NOW I will comment no further on the grounds I may incriminate ...
