After lunch, Shelly had a special birthday party planned for Oak and Shirley. Oak's birthday was yesterday and Shirley's is next Monday. We had fabulous carrot cake and a little local wine from Homer, Alaska.
We are visiting Alaska for a second visit. Our first visit was in 2002 with friends, Oak and Shirley Grant from Jacksonville. We invited ourselves to go with them when they told us they were returning this fall. They are world class cruisers with many, many days at sea. We enjoy spending time together on the few occasions we go with them. Hope you enjoy following us on our journey.

Anchorage: Part IV
Before lunch, we visited the Visitor's Center in the Federal Courhouse. There are numerous exhibits and all sorts of information about Alaska. What we wanted to see was the Alaska Center Theater where 7 different movies about Alaska are shown one after another. We watched movies of the Alaskan Railroad, The Day the Earth Shook-- 1964 earthquake--9. 2, and Bears, Volcanos and Katmai Penninsula. Great opportunity on a rainy day.
