This blog shares our adventures with the world. We've been pretty lucky and have been able to experience cultures, cuisines, and life in many parts of the world. This is where we share it.

Alaska - Day 4- July 1, 2011
Pretty slow start and middle,but oh what a night!! We scored huge, first, with the cool Mom and blond twin 2 year old's. We literally stayed with them for miles. We caught up with them in the meadows near a stream where the kids were boxing and playing in water. Mom was in the act too! Then she started moving them toward the beach. They were moving so fast that we couldn't keep up on foot, so we jumped in the chariot and caught back up with them near the beach. The family of 7 was there too. They got to witness the treat!
We followed the bears down to the beach where they ran and ran. We hopped back in the 4 wheeler with our trusty chariot behind and followed them along the beach. Thankfully we all had hip waders on...me, John, Dave and his wife Tina. We were able to ford a fast running stream and shoot them playing in the water. Mom was even trying to catch fish again! Some spectacular photos were captured! The bears then were on the move again and another group was near, so we let them have the bears and went looking for more.
We crossed the stream and chanced upon the Mom with 3 1-year old cubs. How much fun they were! Fighting and aging in the golden hour!! We shot until well after 9:30 PM in gorgeous light!
Yes. We filled our cards again! Looks like new 32 G cards are going to be purchased. And yes, Marius, it's a new record for gigabytes!! Got to bed after 11 PM because it took that long to download all the cards.
Enjoy!
Cheri & John
