Off the Peninsula...

This picture is pretty self-explanatory! Anchor Point is on the Kenai Peninsula.

There were various Russian settlements on the Peninsula. Here is one of their Orthodox churches located in Ninilchik.
This Russian Orthodox church is in the town of Kenai. It was open, and we were given a brief history by the local priest.




Thatched-roof cabin along the way...


I'm TRYING to hold off on mountain pictures, but it's not easy...there are so many and they are so different and so beautiful!





Kenai Lake....







We are now north of Anchorage on the Glenn Highway. This is the Matanuska Glacier.








We are now heading to Valdez....weather looks a bit "iffy" but I have my fingers crossed. It is another beautiful drive and city.
