Day 33, August 10, 2008
Valdez, Alaska
Eagles Nest Campground

We spent the day (at least Carolee and I did) today just relaxing and resting up from our long trip across Canada and the long drive in Alaska on the way to Valdez. Merrell and Chuck decided that they wanted to do some exploring, but I stayed in and watched TV and just relaxed.
They decided to go down and check out a place to do some salmon fishing. They went to a place someone had told them about. They took our cameras and took some great videos and pictures of two bear cubs "fishing" and all of the salmon and sea gulls.




Merrell decided not to fish because all he had to do was put his hands in the water and the fish literally jumped into them. LOL Chuck got a great picture of him holding one of them!!!










This is one of the bear fishing!! Wonder if the salmon jumped into his mouth like it jumped into Merrell's hands???




Merrell got a great video of the bear fishing





He and Chuck took videos of the salmon. With that many salmon, no wonder you don't really have to fish...................... The sea gulls were really loud and really fat from eating all of the dead salmon!!!!
