Homer to Kenai

Homer bills itself as a "Quaint Little Drinking Town with a Fishing Problem."  The description is pretty appropriate.  There is a protected harbor and a lot of opportunities to spend your money on souvenirs.

We bid farewell to Homer on Wednesday morning and drove to Kenai where we spent another night at a campsite overlooking the ocean.  Not much to see here so we paid a visit to the Fred Meyers Store in Soldotna.  There is a fair Russian presence here and we did visit the Russian Orthodox Church in Kenai.  Some of the villages in the area still maintain a Russian Orthodox life style.

We had a dinner of fresh halibut on our last night in Homer and enjoyed halibut as a first course in Kenai.  How can you beat fresh halibut.

Hi Jack and Mary,
What a blast following you around on your vacation. Fabulous photos really do tell the story. No more of this HOSPITAL stuff, though. Janis Tucker
