Alaska in Flip Flops - Day 6
Day 6Mary woke up early at 6:30 and we went straight to the bus by the dock for a wash - I cam back after to work on the blog ;)Dar made “smoothie for breakfast which was nice as I needed a break from fish!We dealt with the last 10 bags of diesel right as we finished the last bag the Invincible pulled up and offered to fill us up with fuel :( oh well
We made Kale salad for lunch (Kale salad recipe: Kale, onions, artichoke hearts, parsley - dressing: whisk olive oil, balsamic, juice of one lemon, salt and pepper. Cook wild rice. Serve with avocado, feta and pumpkin seeds and smoked salmon if you have it!)
Did abs had a nap ate our salad filled up the water - had coffee and chocolate and left for red bluff bay.
We stopped to photograph beautiful flat still water and mountains a few times.
the first time Mary asked me to drive the boat - hahahahaha
Pulled into Red Bluff and dropped the shrimp pot but Mary wanted to adjust it - when we pulled it there were four prawns! We set it in a better spot and went to try for fish but seemed like we caught the same fish about 5 or 6 times :( we pulled the shrimp pot again and got 4 more prawns - we reset it to leave it over night.
Then we headed into the bay and checked out yet another gorgeous waterfall. and set anchor - we saw a bear on the shore - but by the time we launched all the kayaks the motor boats seemed to scare it away before we could get there so we ate YUMMY chicken marbella a la Dar for dinner with left over rice and kale salad - YUM.
I spotted a bear on the beach so we jumped into the kayaks and saw two really big bears :D Then back to the boat to clean up and we hung out a wee bit then sleepy time. Red Bluff Bay is a REALLY beautiful spot - WOW.
