Morning reflections, Turnagain Arm


Our last day. After today I have to try to remember how to wrestle my own luggage and provide my own snacks. We have been extremely pampered on this tour, and basically I haven't had to do anything except show up and take pictures.

We made an unscheduled stop this morning on our way to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center so everyone could take pictures of the beautiful reflections on Turnagain Arm. That calm surface is deceptive – the bore tides here are the second highest in North America after the Bay of Fundy, and unwary hikers can get stuck in the mud flats and drown.

But this morning -- not a ripple.
