Jenifer arrives in Alaska!

Jenifer and I landed in Anchorage around 7:30 Sunday night. We got out and about for a quick tour of the city on Monday morning. One of our first stops was Campbell Creek Science Center.This sign was really applicable for this time of year but was amusing anyway.
We rode out to Earthquake Park where the entryway symbolizes the devastation of the Good Friday earthquake that occurred here in 1964.
 Alas, the only wildlife we spotted was this happy squirrel.
We made our way back downtown to take in the sights with Greg. We stopped for a pose in front of the log cabin visitor center.
 The flowers were certainly enjoying the long sunny days.

 Anchorage in the summertime is a flower paradise.













The trolley ride took us down to the Ulu Factory.
 We walked along Ship Creek and watched a few people fish for king salmon. No one had any luck while we were there.
 This sea gull stopped to pose for Jenifer. She took all the pictures on the blog today. Hopefully, she will get some more great photos tomorrow on our trip down to Homer.
