The old railroad station
A beautiful statue given to the town for the trail blazer 100th anniversary

Articles on the creations of the Alaskan flag when it was added as a state.
Great information here on the 1964 earthquake. These various clocks all were stopped as the earthquake hit.
Here is information on one of the clocks. This pertains to the clock in the lower right hand corner.
This is about the clock located on the bottom left.
This is the view from the camping location. The cruise ships come in and out of this port. You can see one just in front of the mirror. The mountains across the way.
Saw the cruise ship as it was leaving. Took this picture, it is one the cruise line takes and then sells to the passengers.
This is the cruise ship pivoting around to head out of the harbor area. It was amazing to watch something so large do a pivot.An eagle was perked on a pileing right in front of where we camped.
Sail boats heading out for the day
The rest of the group heading out for a tour.
Enjoyed the stay in Seward but there are other places to explore...stay tuned.
Great post. Loved the mermaid house.
