Journal Entry

Alas, our anticipated Tuesday has arrived. I have the morning free to roam Kodiak one last time. Hidden treasures are found around every corner.

Birds of a feather flock together... ...especially when eagles are around At the docks...especially when eagles are around

An occasional eagle flies by on the drizzly day. Clouds and fog at times rule the skies.

The scenery in Kodiak is breathtaking. Made by glaciers 20,000 years ago, this 5000 sq. mile island is covered with snowy mountains, u-shaped valleys, and fjord-like bays. What a magnificent sight as we quietly leave the dock. The boat is so calm that many of the scientists do not know that we have even pushed off.
