Remarks:
Peril Strait is a must for anyone within reach; however, there is so much of
this West Coast that is spectacular.
Sitka is another really great harbor, but much busier than anything since
Japan.  Without criticizing Sitka, which would be totally unfair; I will say
it is a bit too touristy for us, but still a great place for two-days.
We hope to leave tomorrow.
