Alaskan ocean stroll

Sunday there was a short break in the rain so we went for a walk by the ocean. Orca Bay has this stunning rock mountain that juts out of the ocean and is covered by trees, bushes and moss growing in the cracks and crevices.

When it rains there are impromptu waterfalls that stream down the rocky wall.

We saw more sea otters and other sea life. We actually more otters and stellars sea lions up close yesterday, but alas, I didn't have my camera with me. Here's an otter peaking out of the water to survey the scene.


Here's a sea lion raising his head in the air.

Our vacation is nearing it's end. It's been great being here with family and getting a way from work and our everyday routine. Still, it will be nice to get back to our home, rejuvenated and ready to to get back to work and school.
