July 24, Went to Valdez Museum, saw different fire trucks they used to use, different paintings from different artist, very nice, different artifacts from the past, saw movies about the earthquake in 1964 and the oil spill in 1989. Then onto another museum that continued about the earthquake, the town moving, the houses that were moved to new Valdez and that they burned down the houses that weren’t salvageable, by then Ken was tired of museums. Walked a few blocks along the harbor until we came upon guys cleaning fish, halibut, salmon and rockfish, they where really busy, everyone coming in from fishing and then taking their fish to get fast frozen and shipped home. Walked across the street and Tia food for dinner, it was ok but nothing great. About 6:45 we left and went to the other side of the harbor to the fish hatchery hoping to see bears catching fish, but instead we saw seals catching and eating salmon, very amusing.
