Photo Time!

Filed under: Photography, Travel — Susan Stevenson @ 10:34 am

We have been having the most splendid weather here in Valdez! Sunshine has been abundant, and yesterday we passed 60F. We are both loving it, after so many days of rain in Fairbanks.

I finally resized the photos I took both on the drive down, and yesterday on our adventure around town.  What’s been a little strange is actually having darkness at night. We don’t have to plug up the skylight in the camper to sleep. While the days are still fairly long (dark comes around 10pm), seeing the night sky reminds me that in a month or two, we’ll be seeing A LOT of the night sky.

When the sun surprised us by peeking out between the clouds, we did as most everyone in town did - we went out to enjoy it! Our walk took us down to the marina, where we watched fishermen unload and clean their catch. We meandered along for almost two hours before coming back to the camper for the evening and much needed sleep.
