As I walked the beautiful beaches of Whales, I found many dead carcasses. Apparently a pod of killer whales had swam past the night before, but I missed them :( I found a dead whale carcass, a dead walrus and a few dead seal carcasses. No ivory left! That means no jewelry for Tanya. The other interesting thing was the starfish. There are hundred of dead starfish littering the beach. I was hoping that I might find a live one..and I did. During my walk during a storm I found hundreds of live, beautiful purple and yellow ones clinging to rocks for dear life. Of course trying to get close for pictures, I soaked my sneakers for the 10th time since I have been there. I will have to throw out my sneakers once I get home since they smell like wet dogs.
I am yet to find the men of Deadliest Catch...so far I have only found various body parts!
PS: the natives are always trying to sell you something. Jewelry, bone carvings, anything. I was walking the beach when a woman ran up to me with a book-bag full of crochets items. It was super cold and windy so I bought a hat. I think it's kind of charming!
I love the hat! It's very slimming. :-)
