Today we visited the Alaska SeaLife Center in Seward. Our tour was the behind the scenes one so we learned much more about the center and animals than we could have on our own. The center does a lot of rescue and rehab of orphaned sea mammals and, depending on the age and condition of the animal, will try to release it back to the wild. They do have a small group of harbor seals and sea lions on site which we were able to see. One of the harbor seals was very playful and would follow someone on the other side of the glass- it was entertaining to watch both the seal and person leading her. There were also lots of fish and birds to see around the area.
Seward doesn't have much going on after dinner but hopefully we will find a productive and fun way to spend our last night in Alaska. In a little over 24 hours we will be boarding our flight home, something not everyone wants to do at this point!
