I said good buy to Lindsay this morning and hopped into a cab headed to the fairy terminal. Lindsay was spending one last day in Juneau before hopping on the ferry back to Bellingham, WA where she would then head home to Origin. Good luck with everything Lindsay. I hope our paths cross again someday, your an inspiring person with some awesome story's about your adventures in Alaska. Anyone can talk and fantasize about their life goals and dreams but you are truly living them. You have an amazing passion for exploring Alaska the way it's mean to be explored, that's for sure. Keep in touch.

I almost missed my ride as a very hippie cab driver drove right passed the hostel. We had an interesting conversation on the way there. I was very tired when I got on the ferry. It was very foggy and the ferry repeatedly blew its horn waking me as I began to doze off. I awoke and to my surprise the sun was shinning and the fog had lifted, it was as if I woke up a day latter. The rest of the drip was just wonderful, I really did feel like I was heading home.

Raptor Jen was there at the ferry terminal when I arrived. I love that girl always ready to lend a helping hand and let you borrow her dog for a hike. We exchanged story about the three days passed and I was curious to hear that Debbie had called the cops on a group of French Canadians who refused to pay our admission fee when stopping by the Raptor Center.

Later that night Reece, Miranda, Rostaa and I headed down to the very end of the island to explore a new hiking path. This area is amazing with its breathtaking streams and waterfalls. If you continue walking long enough on this trail you will make your way to Beaver Lake and that's exactly what we did.
