DAY TWO
| I did not bring my proper camera, so all I had was my phone for photos. Others got better zoomed in pictures of these otters. |
|
| I think this is Bear Glacier in the distance. |

| Mountains and a ship. |

| Around here somewhere we stopped for some whale watching. I saw some but did not get a photo because it was just a lot of waiting and hoping you were looking in the right direction. |

| Sea lions sunning themselves. |

| I have decided that if there is a picture that
I don't really have anything to say about, I will share a fun fact about
Alaska. Alaska fun fact: The Alaska state flag was designed by a 13-year-old boy. |

| The little fella does have a bit of a motion sickness problem. He took some medication but it made him drowsy. I was also feeling some sickness. I don't get seasick, but I think the motion of the boat while stopped and looking out on the water looking for whales did me in. Fortunately, the feeling did pass after a while. |

| So it was about this time I knocked my glasses off of my head and onto the deck, after which it slid through a hole on the side and into the water. |

| Holgate Glacier. |
![]() |
| So much ice. |

| ***STOLEN PHOTO ALERT*** I guess I should indicate the photos that were not taken by me because others in our party had proper camera and got better shots. There was a humpback off the port side that seemed to be showing off. The quality of the photo I took with my phone isn't great with the zoom, so I am using Madi's picture taken with a proper camera. |

| More sea lions. |

| Alaska fun fact: The highest recorded temperature in Alaska was 100 degrees in Fort Yukon in 1915. |

| It is hard to make out, but in the center of the photo is a mama goat (I assume) and a baby. Baby goat, that is, not a human baby. |
