Kenai Fjords Tour

It's said that the Kenai Fjords Tour is one of the essential Alaskan tourist experiences. It's an all-day cruise from Seward into the depths of Kenai Fjords National Park. Two days after our wedding, we boarded a boat with my new in-laws and Davin. We saw orcas, seals, sea lions, puffins, a bald eagle and many more. We travels into one of the fjords and saw Aialak Glacier off the Harding Ice Field, which spans more than 300 miles, spawns 40 glaciers and is one of four remaining ice fields in the United States. We finished the amazing day with a salmon and king crab dinner on Fox Island where Davin became a certified junior ranger.

The only bad thing, was I was as tired as I have ever been in my entire life after a week of wedding madness. There was much napping between the pictures.
Our family friends and wedding guests, Dan and Jane Henderson, happened to be on the same cruise as us! One of them snapped the picture below.
