Day 47 of Our RV Journey to Canada & Alaska 6/28/14 - Day Trip to Homer AK

This morning we said our goodbyes to Chuck & Kathy as they were going to Soldotna.  Jesse had to move his rig to a different site due to electric problems at the site.

Later, Jesse & Ginger and Bob & I went to a Farmers Market in Ninilchik.  It didn't have much so we went to Homer.  On the way, we stopped at a lookout area.  From there, we took several pictures of the mountains, volcanos, Cook Inlet, and could even see Homer Spit (a peninsula at Homer).


Homer Spit can be seen in this pic.


Wild flowers growing crazy in this area.

We stopped at a RV Park along the Cook Inlet in Homer to visit some of Ginger & Jesse's friends.  We visited with these nice folks for a while and then drove to Homer Spit.

Homer Spit is a peninsula that has the Cook Inlet on one side and the Gulf of Alaska on the other.  It has a Fish Factory on the end where they process fish commercially, a huge marina/docking area, fish charter businesses, shops, condos, restaurants, RV & tent parking areas right next to the water, and more. We ate a late lunch at the Harbor Grill.  It was a very busy place today and a beautiful day to be busy...sun shining bright and few clouds in the sky...perfect weather for Alaska.

 Look at all the Halibut & Silver Salmon!!!
  



 





After leaving Homer Spits, we stopped at Anchor Point, which is 'North America's most westerly highway point'. 



 


Today we saw a moose & eagle at Anchor Point, and halibut & salmon at Homer.

Have a good day!!
