In the morning, Valerie’s parents boarded a cruise of the Kenai Fjords. Valerie and I slept in and then couldn’t decide what to do. At the last minute, Valerie decided that she too wanted to take a cruise, and we quickly walked to the small boat harbor and boarded a shorter cruise of Resurrection Bay. During the cruise, we saw a few glaciers, some orcas, a humpback whale, and many birds, including a couple eagles. (Valerie says she saw a flying puffin.) At the outer edge of the bay, the water was very choppy and the boat rocked enough to knock all of the stuff off of our table. Overall, I think the cruise of Prince William Sound was more enjoyable because of the calmer waters.

We returned to port about an hour before Valerie’s parents. Their cruise was much more rocky than ours and Valerie’s mom became quite seasick. Tomorrow, Valerie and I are splitting up from Valerie’s parents. They are driving the RV to Anchorage to return it to Great Alaskan Holidays while we will be driving the rental car west to Homer.
