Homer Spit

Still day two of our Anchorage trip, we are now on the Spit in Homer. There are alot of other tourists mixed with locals and the hard working people of Alaska. It's amazing to see that they can run around the area with very little clothes on while we from Fairbanks (one of the coldest places in the US) are pretty damn cold and are looking for sweatshirts to put on.

Time to enjoy the spit, here are some pics hope you enjoy!

Homer Spit Harbor
