End of our journey. Seward Day 3 and back to anchorage

Sun July 5th: Visited Marine Life Center at Seward that is home to lots of birds, sea lions, sea otters and seals. It also has a rehabilitation facility and is mostly used for research on migratory patterns of sealife in the Bering Sea.
There is a nice aquarium with a grand underwater view gallery. We got lucky to see puffins and common murres fly underwater to fetch small fish at the bottom.

Shopped at "Once in a blue moose" gift shop. They have a great variety of T-shirts sporting Alaskan wildlife and really funny quotes (similar to Tantra T-shirts back in India). I highly recommend shopping here.

The journey back to Anchorage felt long ... we really did not want to leave the Alaskan beauty behind ... but yet our trip was coming to an end. We had lots of sweet memories with us. With a sense of accomplishment and complete satisfaction we boarded the flight back home to San Francisco early morning (1:45 am) on Monday, July 6th.

I think that travel comes from some deep urge to see the world, like the urge that brings up a worm in an Irish bog to see the moon when it is full.
