We drove along Turnagain Arm today to see the beautiful scenery and stop to watch the bore tide as it came in. Along the way, we stopped at Potter’s Marsh to walk the boardwalks and bird watch. I added two more birds to my list!
At a stream coming into the marsh, there were chum salmon
humpback salmon doing a run – Sam was fascinated! I think he could have stood there all day watching
them.
We stopped a pullout called Bird Point to watch the bore tide
arrive, and Jim and Sam walked out to a point on the rocky outcropping to see
it up close. I stayed up on the lookout point to watch it from above. It was
amazing to watch the wave coming into the bay, all in a long string. You could
hear the water rushing!
Afterwards, we drove down to Girdwood, and ate dinner at a
little place called Silvertip Grill. Good beer, and great chicken fingers for
Sam!
