8-9-2011 Sea Otters and Valdez



On the way to Valdez, this greeted us at the side of the road.  He got a little scared and bolted for the woods.   Hummm...afraid of us???

Arrived in the clouds and rain.  However, what we could see was beautiful.



Can see these beauties from the rig.  Love how the otters lay on their backs and just float along.  Can you imagine, float, fish, eat, float, fish, eat!!!



Valdez is the end terminal for the pipeline.  It travels through Valdez underground, to the end of the road pictured here.  We camped just around the corner from where you see the rig, and then a left corner and it's the end of the road.  No one allowed in there.  Across the water from us is the town, about 12 miles.
