July 20, 2013 - Valdez
We had originally planned on tent camping in Valdez, but Uncle Frank suggested we move to a cabin since it had been raining a lot lately. Good idea Uncle Frank - we woke up Saturday morning to rain :( Luckily it cleared up mid morning so we headed out to go fishing!
We must have been bad luck because Uncle Frank said he has never been to Valdez and not catch fish - until today :( John did trick us and "catch" a fish head and Uncle Frank did catch a fish by the tail - but we tossed him back.
We couldn't argue though - it was a gorgeous day just to sit by the water and the boys had fun.

Luckily, while we were packing for our camping trip Drew was supposed to put some fresh salmon in the freezer, but he put it in the cooler instead. Which ended up being a good thing since we didn't catch a thing!
