We arrived this morning in Ketchikan. It is a good sized city - the last one we will see in probably many months. We encountered more rough seas during the night. Fortunately, being in bed helped with surviving the rolls.
Unlike the earlier weather forecast, we were greeted by mostly cloudy skies with some sun and no rain. As we leave Ketchikan behind, shafts of sun rays beam down through the clouds onto the hills rising up out of the water.
All around us islands rise up- some probably 3 or 4,000 feet high. This is as close to unspoiled wilderness as one will likely find anywhere. At least on this side of heaven, this is probably the best example of what it must have been like when God separated the waters from the land - I can see the waters in the air and below, and the dry land between.
Our cats appear to be fine and have adjusted to life in a crate. They only have half a day more of this before they have new lands to explore.
