August 19 17th day OTR 10th day OTS

We had a quiet run down to Kodiak, even though the seas were rough. Since we were running with them and they had the stabilizers out you didn't feel any movement. Also, we are on deck one, midship, low and center, so it has the least movement anyway.

Sunday in Kodiak was a quiet day. A few places were open but not much was going on. The McDonalds where I had hoped to connect was without power. When they came back on, they didn't get online so no wifi running. Also, they only took cash since the credit and debit needs the same connection as the wifi. This was disappointing but nothing to be done. I feel more sorry for the crew who have time ashore here and can't connect. They get a little bit of a deal from the ship but the internet is expensive for them even at the reduced rate.

We walked into town along the harbour road where all the fish processing plants are. It wasn't far but it was noisy with all the refrigeration units running. The town is not very big and since it was Sunday, it was also very quiet. We did go into the Russian Orthodox Church after the service was over.
