July 11, 2013 Tenakee to Hoonah

Hoonah is a Tlingit community with a population of about 800 residents.  As in so many small villages, one store has EVERYTHING!
Recently they have become famous for the worlds longest Zip Line.

Wild Honey Suckle filled the air with an amazing fragrance.

Mother Bald Eagle grabs a nap in between feedings. 
The nest has become a directional point in town.
"Go to the Eagles nest and turn left." 
 or "An Elder of Hoonah sells fresh picked berry pies next to the Eagles nest." 

Some very nice Canadian fishermen are cleaning their catch on the dock on the way to Seventh Heaven.

They caught some beautiful Halibut.

The smaller Halibuts are nicknamed "Chickens"

They were very generous and gave John a fillet. I sauteed' it in butter, garlic, black pepper and we had it for hors d'oeuvres.

It was Dorie's Birthday!

I purchased an apple tart from the: "Elder under the Eagles Nest" that we had for her Birthday celebration.

After dinner of my home made Tacos, Dorie and I walked to the only place in the village that has Internet.

The sunset was spectacular!

The "Office Bar"is the only bar in town with the only public Internet.  Each person must consume at least $10 in alcoholic beverages in order for the bartender to come to your device and put the secret password.

On the way back to Seventh Heaven we walked along the shore.  Fish boats are preparing for tomorrows catch.  They cast a perfect reflection in the mirror like water.
