No Regrets in Valdez

The last time we were in Valdez, it was cold and raining sideways which made kayaking through the Prince William Sound and the ice bergs of the Columbia Glacier seem a little less than spectacular. So, we came back and we brought the sun with us.

We had an amazing day on the Sound as we paddled through the ever-shifting ice bergs and watched in awe as the enormous hunks of ice floated and flipped passed us with the tide.

Chasing down sea otters and getting a close look at a pod of orcas was the icing on the cake. It proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, that we made the right choice coming back here.

Following in the footsteps of Joseph Hazlewood, captain of the Exxon Valdez, we turned out the lights on Valdez with a scotch on the rocks at The Pipeline Club, the city's favorite drinkery.
