The 5 Hour Tour

The forecast predicted a fairly nice day so we jumped on it and turned tourist by booking a 5 hour glacier tour in Prince William Sound (there was a 3 hour tour, but we all know how that one turns out😃). It was awesome! We saw 26 glaciers, sea lions, harbor seals, black bears, bald eagles, and sea otters (which are the cutest thing on earth). We didn’t get to see any whales but maybe on the ferry south we will. We had a great time and made it back to The Bunker safe and sound!

We saw glaciers from afar.
And close up
And really close up. This one was calving and the resulting waves were rocking the boat.
Sea lions enjoying the warmth of the rocks and the sun.
Adorable sea otters who were smart enough to stay away from the boat.
A bit windblown, but no rain!
A fishing boat heading out for the evening.
Whittier from the water. Begich Towers in the middle, deserted Buckner building to the left and Whitttier glacier up above.
