Started the day with a stop by a stream hoping  to see salmon run but we were a little too early in the season. Enjoyed a visit to the Alaska Native Heritage Center then back aboard the luxury motorcoach for the trip to Alyeeska Resort. A stop at the jade shop yielded raw material for future jewelry projects for Steve. Took the tram up to the top of the mountain. Enjoyed some playtime in the snow before enjoying an absolutely fabulous dinner with John & Amy at Seven Glaciers Restaurant at the top of the world.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
