Today has been very cloudy, but no rain! The first thing we did today was go to Exit Glacier. There is a nice road that leads almost to the base of the glacier. Once you get to the parking lot, you can walk a trail that is about ½ mile long to get to the base of the glacier. We were afraid that would be too much walking, so we didn’t make the hike. It was neat to be that close to a glacier though.
From there we went back to town and saw that a cruise ship had arrived in town. Then we went to the Alaska SeaLife Center. The center provides a unique Alaskan ocean experience that allows visitors to get closer to Alaska’s marine species. It was a real neat experience. While there we also signed up for the Behind The Scenes tour that showed us a lot of the research and rehabilitation they are doing and taking us through the entire center. What an experience. We spent the entire afternoon and part of the evening there. As we came out of the center, we saw the cruise ship just leaving port. It was neat.
Afterwards we went uptown and found a nice Chinese Restaurant and had a good dinner. Then it was back to the campground to call it a day.
The lowest temperature I saw was 50 degrees and the highest I saw was 62 degrees today. We’re sure enjoying these temperatures.
