Flight to Anchorage

Here are six pics of the mountains peeking through the clouds near Cordova, Alaska. As you can see, they are still snow covered. Cordova is east of Anchorage by about 200 miles. I will be working on Kodiak Island, which is about 300 miles SSW of Anchorage. You can take a look at a map here.

The flight from Indy to Cincinnati was on schedule, but the arriving plane in Cincinnati that we were to take to Anchorage was late. The flight was about 7 hours long, but we arrived about a half hour late into Anchorage. Then, because we were not flying Alaska Airlines, they dumped three 757's of luggage onto one carousel, so it took forever to get my 3 bags. I was picked up and taken to a hotel in downtown Anchorage where I stayed the night.

On Sunday, I went to church at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church (WELS) in Anchorage. Pastor Voss flies out to Kodiak about once a month to hold a service there. Then, on Sunday afternoon I flew out to Kodiak.

I hope to show you with pictures (and some text) what I'm doing (seeing) here in Kodiak, Alaska.
