Day 77 – The Water Taxi

We had an indecisive day today. We were going to head back towards anchorage, but the day was so beautiful at the coast that I didn’t want to leave straight away. I’d really wanted to do a kayak trip here but we would have had to book that in advance.

We drove back down Homer spit and the sea looked calm. We checked the availablity of a water taxi to go wildlife viewing. She said we could go on one immediately, and it would just be the two of us. Why not? We thought.

So we jumped on the water taxi and headed into katchemak bay. It was beautiful out on the water with snow covered mountains rising out of it. There is a glacier lake kayak and hike i wanted to do, but i am just so tired from all the late nights watching the sun set.

On our hours cruise we saw a few puffins and sea otters but that was it. We’d probably need to go out for longer to see whales.

After our trip, we headed back towards anchorage. It’s a 4.5 hour drive to Anchorage so we stopped at our lovely lake camp again for the night.
