Cook Inlet




Our last day in Homer we did a laundry and had breakfast at Sourdough Express before hitting the road. We wanted to make it back to Gwin's Lodge in Cooper's Landing for lunch (M had fallen for their salmon chowder on the drive down) - so I kept the scenic stops short while we headed up Cook Inlet through Anchor Point (the western most segment of highway in North America), Whiskey Gulch (beach and volcanoes), and Nimilchik (Russian church).

The next two days were our only unscheduled days of the entire adventure - in part because we thought we'd gauge the weather before deciding to invest in a drive up towards Denali. The weather was great, so that's where we were headed.
