We have also been walking around watching the fishing boats come in with their catch. We have not seen any without fish (halibut) so I can't wait until tomorrow to get on the water.
It is also fascinating to watch the tide come in and go out. There is about a 20' difference between high and low tide so the difference is very dramatic.
We went to St John the Baptist Catholic Church last night and they have one of the most beautiful altars I have ever seen. It is very simple but has to large windows that look out onto the ocean and mountains.
Did you know? If you split Alaska in half, Texas would be still only be the thrid largest state.
