Today our goal is to go the most Westerly point of Alaska that is accessible by road. Then onto Homer a cruise ship port. Homer is a touristy town with a long slip covered in tourist attractions. It reminded me of Bangor Maine. We had a healthy lunch for a change; smoked salmon salad. Man, it was good. Imagine a Greek salad with smoked salmon. Mmmm.

The catch of the day (me) |
Leaving Homer the weather is overcast with rain off & on. The temperature is still in the teens. On our way out of town a Bald Eagle passed overhead. It was huge, like 747 taking off. We had seen its nest earlier. I'm sure I could have sat inside it (except for the young eagles.)
We head back up the peninsula & stop @ Soldotna for the night. It has been exactly 4 weeks & 13K kms since we started our trip.
