8-10-09: The day started with a visit to the Imaginarium Science Discovery Center in Anchorage. It was a small science center comprised of a marine life/fisheries section, a galaxy room, a reptile viewing section (the 2 American alligators on display came from our neck of the woods-the Gator Farm in Mosca, CO lol!), a bubbles exhibit, and the main exhibit which focused on planes/the physics behind flight.
Afterwards we went to Kincaid Park for a ride on their bike trail; the kids continue to strengthen their biking legs. We left Anchorage and stopped to view Turnagain Arm (an inlet of the Pacific Ocean where Beluga whales tend to gather). The tide in this area was receding and leaving behind vast mudflats with channels of quick-moving, riptide water. We camped at Black Bear Campground and saw spawning sockeye (red) salmon in the creek by camp.
