Day 58 - Haines, AK - August 26, 2011

The Brittons pulled out of Haines Junction, YT headed for Haines, AK.


The road was good and the day started out with sunshine but changed to mist and OVC as we motored on


The scenery was still beautiful.




Although, there was this now all too familiar site


But fortunately not for too long


We made it back into the USA


and continued along one of the most beautiful drives yet.


We made it to Haines, parked the rig right on the edge of the bay and went exploring.


Pam was the first (I wonder why? ) to spot the Brown (Grizzly) bears


They fished



and ate


and fished, we saw 5 total.


Folks were fishing the same river and it was good humor to watch them scramble towards safety as the bears came closer.



Then there were the Bald Eagles.  We lost count.


We saw eagles flying with salmon in their talons but couldn't get them on .... film?  Maybe tomorrow. But we did catch them watching.


We closed out the day meeting other RV'ers in the park around a campfire.  Nice people, great life, we wished J,G,H were here to share this with us.  Monday.....maybe.
