Greetings folks

just got back from Alaska
it was amazing weather - sunny and 75º the entire time, yet I still managed to catch a cold

I also managed to crack the LCD panel on my camera, so I had no idea how my pics would turn out
most are not good, but here are a few cool ones

Kenai Lake - just one of many picturesque lakes on the side of Seward Hwy



Seward - the habor where I set out to tour Kenai Fjords



Wildlife - Some ferocious beasts that I encountered on my boat tour of Kenai Fjords

Sea Otters - lovable, but deadly


Steller Sea Lions - fat, but endangered


Dalls Porpoises - playful, but stupid (Alaska is cold you stupid porpoises)

Humpback Whales - I saw their backs, but no humping

Colgate Glacier - this thing was big and bright blue, we got to see a few large chunks drop off ("calving" is the correct term)







I saw lots of other things that I could not capture on film
Alaska is kinda cool

TIGHT MAKES ME WANNA GO SKINNY DIPING ON THAT SEA!! LOL!

Here are some pictures of my trip to London

Albert Memorial - someday I will have a blinged out golden memorial erected for my contributions to humanity


Big Ben - Meh....I've seen bigger.


Buckingham Palace Gardens - Oooh! Flowers!


Shakespeare's Globe Theaters - Now with 50% less culture and 50% more SUPER SOFT ICE!


Rosetta Stone - You can't see in this picture, but this stone contains the first ever RD message board where Lady posted in Greek, Demotic Egyptian, and Egyptian hieroglyphs


St. James' Park - There were lots of ducks here, and lots of duck crap.


St. Paul's Cathedral - This clergy rolls deep here.


Tower Bridge - This is NOT London Bridge and it would never fall down.


Tower of London - A portion of the Tower complex.


Tower Toilet - I feel sorry for the Beefeaters.
