Ninilchik, AK

We left Seward this morning after having seen all the sights worth seeing. We saw Orca and Hump Back Whales, Sea Lions, Sea Otters, Moose and the best of all Grizzly Bear. We really had a good time and the owners of the RV Park were great and really made us feel at home.

We drove about 130 miles to our destination, The Alaskan Angler RV Park. It rained all the way down and Jerry was not able to take more than four pictures on this trip. Oh well we'll take more now that we're here.

Ninilchik is a Russian fishing village whose name means "peaceful settlement by the river". Founded in the mid 1800's. there are about 300 permanent residents here. Cook Inlet has the second highest tidal changes in the northern hemisphere, and is ringed by active volcanoes, Augustine, IIiamna, Redoubt, and Spurr. Deep Creek and Ninilchik River are famous for Salmon fishing and the local beach is excellent for razor clams. We're looking forward to doing a lot of sight seeing around here.
