Friday July 01, 2011: We enjoyed a really good halibut dinner at the "Indian House Restaurant" located on the Seward Highway. After dinner we went to Beluga Point to watch the "Bore Tide" come in; sea level during high tide was over 26 feet higher than at low tide. Locals told us that quite often harbor seals ride the tide in and beluga whales follow close behind because of the incoming fish. However, the rain and fog also came in with the tide and we didn't see seals or whales; we did see a mountain goat, our first in Alaska.
Saturday July 02, 2011: It continued to rain all night and was raining lightly as we headed south on the Seward Highway and traveled to the Kenai Peninsula. We're staying three nights at the Kenai Princess RV park in Coopers Landing. We all enjoyed a good halibut dinner benefiting the Coopers Landing Clinic.
