Our trip to Alaska will never be duplicated, although we will try. This was the adventure of a lifetime. We were very fortunate with Sharon's selection of Kayak Transport Company for our mothership kayaking cruise. The "crew" of the Abyssinia, Eric and Kim, provided the stage for us to explore Southeast Alaska, to experience the wildlife and to sample a portion of Alaskan cuisine. Alaska provided the beautiful backdrop while we kayaked around great locations like the Inian Islands and George Islands. Mother nature provided the deer, bears, eagles, sea otters, whales and sea lions to name a few. The weather cooperated and no one cared if it rained, we were in Alaska.
The best aspect of our experience was the camaraderie of those who shared those 8 days in our lives. We all shared a common ground: a passion to kayak, an appreciation of our surroundings and good fellowship. To our new friends, Kim & Eric, who had just as much fun as we did, and to Ron & Mary, our new friends from New Zealand, who added a colorful downunder perspective - Thanks.
Alaska, we will return.
