Homer, AK

We have enjoyed Alaska so much and seen so many things that I never dreamed we would see!  The last weekend in June, we took an overnight trip to Homer, AK.  Our hotel was at the very end of the Homer Spit.  Homer is located at the tip of the Kenai Peninsula and the spit is a 4.5 mile long piece of land that sticks out into Kachemak Bay.  We had hoped to see starfish along the coast, but the low tide was not low enough the weekend we went.  It was still fun though!
 

Checking out stuff along the beach.



These flowers are in the same family as bluebonnets, so they remind me of home!

We saw tons of eagles!  This guy perched on a low building, so I took tons of pictures of him and inched closer and closer hoping to get a nice close up before he flew away!

Gorgeous views!



When I made the hotel reservations, the lady mentioned their pool.  I thought, "Awesome!  The kids will be so excited!"  She forgot to mention it was a "Endless Pool."  The kind for exercise.  The boys liked it anyway.
