Seward, Alaska |
| Seward is a picturesque town nestled on the shores of Resurrection Bay, where mountains rise majestically from crystal blue waters. Honored 3 times as an "All-America City", Seward is now over 100 years old, and reflects the spirit of the Alaskan pioneer. Weather in summer ranges from 39 degrees to 63 degrees. The two RV Gypsies have not hit the 63 degree weather yet. |
| Traveling from Whittier to Seward, a bicycle path went for many, many miles - along with great scenery. | |
