Bear Creek Drive, PO Box 164 Homer, Alaska, United States, 99603, 907-235-8484
Monday was the orientation flight. Alaska flying is different than East Coast flying (we learned): cloud cover keeps you low in the valleys with mountains around you, wilderness causes you to follow roads, rivers, bays... someplace you might have a chance to land should anything go awry. So, we departed Anchorage International (PANC) where Herb and Leo had left the plane, for Homer down on the southern coast of the Kenai peninsula, as a warmup. Dave flew the leg down. The Kenai is home to th...

Homer, United States bwmuzik... We visited Kenai, a small city to see the Church. It rained on our way to Homer. Just before we arrived at Homer, at the hilltop overlooking homer spit, this place offered a spectacular view of the glaciers! There're two telescope that enabled us to see the ship on the sea and car on the spit, not to mention the ice/snow on the glacier. <br><br>The B&B was very ...
Homer, Alaska, United States mrdubyyou know its sort of a sad thing when your body begins to break down from wear and tear. you should hear the pops and creaks that emit from my joints when my alarm goes off at 7 in the morning. speaking of which, i thought i had made some sort of pact with the devil that i would never have to wake up at such an ungodly hour ever again after i took a summer school chemistry class in college that started at 7:30. what the hell am i doing awake this early? at least the ...

Homer, Alaska, United States travel-n-chick... distinction of working in the dive industry but being based in Bangkok. My shuttle bus to the airport was leaving at 11pm so when the time arrived we all headed over to the shop, got my bags and then went to the designated pick up spot. I waited for about 20 seconds and then the bus showed up...20 minutes early. Thank god I had gotten there a few minutes early or I would have had to pay some astronomical taxi fee to get to the airport ...
Homer, Alaska, United States nealinthailand... setting. There are four huge glaciers in the mountains across Cook Inlet glistening in the last rays of the evening light that serve as a backdrop to the town. On the last stretch of the route towards the city, in an illusion of space and perspective, the road seems to lead right into a giant glacier. The final crowning feature for Homer is the 5 km spit that goes right out into Cook Inlet. How remarkable is that? Just a narrow causeway ...
Homer, Alaska, United States lobo... local old ladies put her hand on my shoulder as she walked by to look at my t-shirt, and the waitress touched Mom's arm, thanking her for being patient. The menu was funny too. After we left, it began to rain, it had been cloudy all morning, and we couldn't see across Cook Inlet where some mountains and volcanoes are supposed to be. We got to Homer before they would let us into our room, so we ...
Homer, Alaska, United States wolfpackcruiser... 8pm, just in time for her to greet her other guests and give them helpful information on places to grab some dinner and night-time activities. After resting for a bit and meeting the others, Amy and I agreed on a pizza place just down the road for its nearby location and good wine selection from what we were told. Afterward, after yet another hectic day, we went straight back and crashed before many of the others were even back.
