Eating whale
At the Redington's house before we left we were treated to a snack of whale, harpooned by an Alaska native at Whale Fest. The picture shows some pieces with the thick black skin attached to the blubber. The pink is the actual whale blubber. It is very oily and is apparently very healthy to eat. Not sure I could have a steady diet of it, but apparently the Natives thrive on it.
We stayed at the Wasilla Best Western hotel on Lake Lucille - just two doors down from Sarah Palin's house. We have looked and looked but we cannot see Russia from here.
